Misako Visit - Day1
Last weekend my friend Misako from Tokyo came for a short visit. We tried to see and do as much as possible in the three days she was here. Being winter, we didn’t go to the beach or swim in the ocean, but we did get to all the major tourist places.
On Friday when she got here, we went straight for Shuri castle. After exploring the castle, we walked the old stone road to Shikinaen gardens. Both places I had been to before, but the second time was still just as interesting. We then took a walk up Kokusai Street, ate Okinawa Soba, and headed out to meet Ken. Ken escorted us onto base to see a special Christmas concert by the Marine band. It was great to hear all the Christmas music, as well as see all the Americans in the Christmas spirit. There was even free Christmas cookies.
