Again, one of the main reason I will miss Okinawa-the parks. Where else can you get up close and personal with a hog in the thick of swine flu season? Where else can you walk goats on a leash and get a ride from an Ox? If you find a place in the States that costs less than 10 bucks, let me know. The Okinawans also throw safety and caution to the winds which results in incredible jungle gyms. Check Peter out on a pretty awesome slide! Even Pudge wouldn't get near that monster! The Orchids are in season and it has been quite some time since I have seen flowers so beautiful. Our trip to Bios on the hill was part of our farewell week with our friends. We will surely miss the Rohr girls!

Well, we did it! We finally made the move and are back on the East Coast. We had a great time transiting the Pacific. Our stops in Hawaii and California were more than memorable. As we open a new chapter we start a new blog. Check out our new adventures at our new blog: www.livingsullivanstyle.blogspot.com

Moving Day!
I am also going to put this in Okinawa v. USA . Okinawa wins, hands down. It took our Japanese movers four hours to pack and load our entire shipment of household goods. Granted, it was only about 4500 pounds but the same job took 12 hours back in the United States. These guys didn’t even accept a tip-except a couple of Burger King Whopper meals. Life got a whole lot less stressful after our stuff was gone….

Comprehensive Park-One Last Time
This is our favorite park by far…just take a look and you can see why. This park is a must for families with kids coming to Okinawa. The boys had a great time riding their scooters (Danny is getting pretty good), climbing the castle, and feeding the carp (which I find disgusting yet somehow can’t stop watching). The park was bustling with locals on vacation during Japanese Golden Week. For more on golden week check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Week_(Japan)
