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!

Crowded cities very quickly change . . .


. . . to farming areas, as we speed along at nearly 200 miles per hour! These rice fields are just starting to sprout.


It is very green in Japan right now. May & June are the rainy season.


Inside the Shinkansen (bullet train). It is VERY comfortable - much more than an airplane, and the time from Hiroshima to Osaka is about the same, with much less hassle.


Brief stop at Shin-Kobe Station.
