Yomitan Pottery Festival
Today I went to the Yomitan Pottery Festival here on Okinawa. It was very intriguing to see how the local Okinawans create their pottery. They have many kilns in Yomtian village and each house seemed to either have a commune kiln that they all used or a small household kiln. I got to see many beautiful pottery and how they are made! The prices ranged from VERY expensive due to the rarity of the pottery to inexpensive chipped or imperfect pottery. I wish now I would have brought more money with me, hahah. Here are some pictures I took.
God Bless

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!
