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!

Now it's time to leave Kingman for Vegas, where we'll fly out to Nashville. Look at this beautiful desert between Kingman and Hoover Dam . . .


Heather told us several bridges are being built over the new dam road for the animals to cross. Wonder how they will be told to use them?


The new dam bypass bridge is nearly complete. What an amazing dam project!


One of the beautiful dam buildings with the dam bypass bridge behind. Heather says she's heard that this dam road (on top of the dam) will be closed to traffic when the dam bypass bridge is finally finished, and will just be for pedestrians to tour. Although the traffic is always heavy, it will be sad not to drive on top of the dam . . .


View from the road looking up under the dam bypass bridge. It was built from both sides & met in the middle. Good job engineers!
