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!

Friday Night Dinner

We've joined Jerry & Terry at their new favorite downtown Iwakuni restaurant. We've never been here before. Doesn't Terry look fabulous? -- she's lost a lot of weight in the past few months. Hooray for you, Terry!


Look how pretty this magaro (tuna) sashimi is presented. Sashimi is like sushi, but without the rice ball. It's resting on a bed of shredded white something (maybe daikon?{raddish} or maybe a type of seaweed), dried bamboo shoot sticks, bitter leaf & a dandelion flower. That's a dab of wasabi on the side. I love the plates in this place!


Hamachi-harami (yellowtail) sashimi. This is Stan's very favorite.


This beautiful salad was just a little too spicy for me.
