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!

Today is August 6 - anniversary of the day the atom bomb fell on Hiroshima in 1945, so this little boy's shirt seems VERY appropriate. I love peace, too . . .


Closeup of all the tents & booths across the river. We really should go over there, but it's a long walk or bike ride & the river is a little too swift for us to walk straight across . . .


Now I really like those chairs!


Looking across Stan's chair at a little after 4. More & more people are starting to drift in. We got here about 2 - the fireworks start at 8.
