JAPAN ADVENTURE

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!

View inside the Hondori Street covered shopping mall.


Oh, I love that cute "cat scuba-diving" umbrella! Our time is up today and I didn't find either thing I was looking for, but I'll keep looking . . . tomorrow we'll check out Iwakuni shops.


After a short streetcar ride, we're back at Hiroshima Station. Look at these pretty decorations celebrating cherry blossom season. After purchasing a ticket, it's really easy to return to Iwakuni, because our train is always at the first track, and runs about every 10-15 minutes.

It's crowded on the local this afternoon.


But this nice young couple got up & gave us their seats. We were very grateful! (It's nice to be "old & respected" in Japan!)
