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!

We shared pork on a stick & yakisoba (fried noodles) Yum! Notice our table is "no smoking" - this is really catching on in Japan (hooray!). It was nice to rest my bad knee for a few minutes & watch the festivities.


Bicycle parking along the street as we walk toward the streetcar stop.


Beautiful spiral fire escape stairway behind a building.


On the streetcar looking out at the Flower Festival.


We decided to stop at Polar Bear for gelato. No chocolate, but this was delicious anyway - some kind of cheese, but I forgot what kind - something I had never heard of before - a type of sweetened cream cheese I think.
