Welcome to Margie & Stan's Japan Adventure - our photo blog while living on MCAS Iwakuni in beautiful Yamaguchi Prefecture in Western Japan from 8/2004 to present. My photo above is the famous Kintai Bridge right here in Iwakuni. Be sure to check out Blog Archive (below left) for highlights of our travels. And leave us a comment - we'd love to hear from you!

Beautifully-raked rock garden.


Garden view from one of the buildings.


Japanese New Year's decorations outside the front door.


Then we head over to the Sagawa Shoyu-gura. Look at the amazing wood ceiling beams inside the soy sauce factory. This original building has been in the same family for many hundreds of years.


Soy sauce is fermenting in these giant vats. Interesting fragrance . . .
