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!

A graceful Japanese white crane (egret) in the river. This one's for you, Ingrid!


And a pair of wood ducks . . .


Waterfall in the river. I LOVE riding along this riverwalk that goes along both sides of the river in Tsuwano!


And the view of the Taikodani Inari Jinja (太皷谷稻成神社) - shrine on the side of the mountain. Just to the right side are the more than 1000 torii that you pass through to hike up to the shrine from Tsuwano town. We've done this before, but not today.


Again, cameras are set up alongside both sides of the river banks - under the fragrant sakura trees.
