How to address a package/letter to Japan?

[stone_dragone]

During my Captains' career course this past year my family and I became very close to a visiting japanese family. now we want to send them something in the mail, but I don't know the proper form of the address (i.e in america we put name, street address, city, etc on separate lines...)could someone please hook me up with the right way to write the address.

I have changed the address for privacy but the elements are still there.

45-678 446bannti futamata ichikawashi chibaken 272-0001

any help is appreciated!
