Last day

It has been fun. Wednesday it rained all day so we went bowling and they we not to see water man the new movie.  Thursday we went to the WWii memorial and to the beach again.  There were lots of stair steps but it was beautiful. Then we went to a snake museum and walled thru a cave.  We went to a raw fish restaurant but only Lane ate raw fish. I ate some fish but not raw.

Not sure what we are doing today and tomorrow is the long road home.

The first pic below is a grave
  They have these little houses all over. Sometimes right among where they live.  I posted a pic of them earlier but did not explain that it was a cemetery.

What to do on Christmas day

Why, go shopping, of course.  We first went to a cliff with a view and then to a local shopping district.  Was fun with lots of walking. And we ate st A&W.

Who knows what tomorrow holds.

Merry Christmas

It is 7 am Christmas morning here. Everyone is still asleep.

Yesterday we went to a castle, lots of walking, and to a local restaurant night, lots of meat.

Not sure what is on Friday today.

Here are some pics.

Day 1, Dec 23rd, aquarium

Yeaterday, our first full day here, we went to the aquarium.  It had lots of fish and 2 big whale sharks.  It was interesting and very pretty.

They also had an authentic okinawan village with houses and outbuildings.  The better looking house was a religious leaders house and the thatched huts were regular people houses.  The actual living orvsleeping space is in the top while cooking, eating and day time activities were in the open space under the sleeping area.  This was necessary for protection from hurricanes.  With posting with my phone all the pictures have to go at the end of the post so u will just have to figure it out. Oh, and they had goats.

It is 530  am Christmas eve here and 15 hours before that on Dec 23 at home. Figure it out. My watch says 230.  I guess that is afternoon. Oh. And it is 67 degrees here. During the day it will be close to 80 all day.

I read betty's book about Jennie Mae and James and am ready to start on Sally fields.

On to another adventure today.
