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!

Stan's easy to find, even in a crowd!


This sign says Shin-Yamaguchi - the name of the station where we board the steam train.


Can you see how excited Stan is? He's been wanting to take this trip for a long time, but it always sells out very quickly. This time, I got to the travel office before they opened, the day these tickets went on sale.

Looking down the covered platform at Shin-Yamaguchi Station.


We've boarded now, and I'm touring the train. This is the front observation car, looking at the back of the steam engine.


Inside a car before everyone sits.


Some of the cute children we saw at the station. They are VERY excited, but very well-behaved!
