| Naira Beach |
!PICTURES UNDER CONSTRUCTION!
Today we went to Naira Beach. It was a beautiful warm & sunny day. It's kind of back in the rural area of Okinawa and the beach was preety secluded. Lots of sugar cane fields were on the side of the road and even more Okinawans working on a saturday. They only get Sunday off from work. The beach was so beautiful. Green & blue water, breaking waves, lots of plantlife and a very rocky beach. They actually import the white sand that you see because it's usually so rocky. When your swimming you should always wear some kind of water shoe so you don't cut yourself on the rocks and coral. You also can look straight down and see through the clear water right down to the bottom. I was a little uneasy swimming in the deeper water because I like to be able to touch the bottom so if something touches me I can run out!!! Hahaha. Off in the distance you could see huge rocks with the waves crashing into them, it was beautful. I found alot of beautiful shells here to. But you have to be careful what you pick up :) The other people on the beach were we think Japanese Dragon Boat Racers practicing for the boat race. They had a wooden canoe and about 6 of them would get into the canoe and row back and forth over and over all over the ocean, then rest for about 10 min and do it all over agian! Crazy stamina! Anywho the pictures can't express the true beauty of this place but you should get the idea. We will visit this beach again, and next time we'll bring snorkel gear!

My review
I'm really humbled by this book. Her journey during the war is truly and inspiration to life. I now look around while I'm driving or walking on Okinawa and think to myself of the struggles that so many Okinawan refugees went through, including the author as a 7 year old child! Defiantly an inspirational read!
