We made it to Okinawa. Seriously, I haven't slept in too many days to count, just an hour or so here and there. Okinawa is very tropical, the climate is eerily similar to Hawaii. Adam lives in a great apartment right on the ocean. We arrived near dusk, and the crabs were scurrying all around the coral and shoreline. On the flight in we saw these little islands dotted all along, some had mini mountain ranges, others were lush green with lots of sand shorelin...

We made it! It was a long flight and everyone is exhausted. We had to get two rooms at our hotel since there are only twin beds. Narci went to the bathroom and started pushing buttons and all of a sudden, we hear a loud squeal. Many toilet options apparently. Everything was closed by the time we got here for dinner, so we went to the local mini mart for sushi and ramen that we made with our coffee maker at the hotel. We are staying a few miles from the air...

Well, we are finally on our way!!! We flew to Houston, and the to LA, and are on our Singapore Airlines flight to Narita. Yeah! We had a couple of hours in California, so we hit the closest In n Out Burger. It was right across from the airport, and the planes were flying right over us to land on the runway. It is a really cool spot. Lucky for the kids there was a also a little park and even some trees to climb. Of course, they made themselves right at home....

Leaving one civilization for another.
