Iwakuni

On our trip, we stayed at Iwakuni Air Station. And the town which was near was coincidentally called Iwakuni. I tried this panoramic photo of the Kintai Bridge.

Here's a closer-upper photo of the bridge. On top of the hill behind is the Iwakuni Castle- see below. Bri's looking quite Hollywood.


Iwakuni Castle- see above.


Luckily, we found nourishment later that day. This is a unique little restaurant labeled affectionately as "The Chicken Shack" by the Americans in the area. Why, I don't really know. We did have some chicken on a stick, but that was about it. I got a pot full of charcoal to cook my own meat on. It was outstanding.


After dinner, we were walking around and of course ran into- you guessed it- angry samurai...


And even more angry samurai...

Luckily we escaped with our heads still on our shoulders.
