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!

Watch & listen to this brief video of the egret dance from Stan's perspective - he could see over everyone's heads! These costumes weigh about 35 pounds & these folks marched & danced for hours in many different locations all over Tsuwano!




The dance has finished & we're back on our bikes looking toward the entrance to the 1000 torii gate entrance that goes up the hill to the Taikodani Inari Shrine. But we're going the other direction, back toward the downtown area. It's SOOO nice to have our bikes!
