Okinawa. Vacation Day 4
Not much to write about today – just a leisurely time on the beach, the sea water is out of this world. Hence lots of food pictures as we explore Okinawan cuisine. I doubt we can find it anywhere in the Bay Area.

Okinawa. Vacation Day 3
Considering our sunburnt bodies, we made it to the beach at 06:00 am. Who would have thought that by 07:45 the sun would be so harsh and hot, it would herd us back to our room? We spent all late afternoon swimming and snorkeling, the water was as warm as парное молоко, which i don’t…

Okinawa. Vacation Day 2.
Sunburnt and sore, we decided to stay out of sun today. 1,5 hour taxi ride took us to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium and Tropical Dream Botanical Garden. Out of the resort bubble and into the streets of the island! I know my daughter is a beautiful girl. But to have random people asking to take…

Okinawa. Vacation Day 1.
We woke at a crack of dawn, well rested and had immediately taken our breath away with the view from our room window. I use no filters for my photos and videos. At 5:30 am had the beach to ourselves and dove into turquoise, transparent to the very bottom, warm waters of the East China…

Day 1. Tokyo to Nara
We woke up at 4 am. Well rested. Scratch that. Time for coffee. Dasha insists we MUST buy all sort of yummies at 7/11. Apparently it’s a thing, according to TikTok. So we did. Who would have though that breakfast on a train with snacks from 7/11 would occupy a place next to the high…

Konnichi Wa from The Country of Rising Sun!
First time taking a flight with Zip Air, direct flight from SFO to Tokyo Narita airport. 10 hours and 10 min direct flight. If you are like me and could not care less about TV and in flight meals/snacks, not too bad. If you do care about the above – just purchase it while onboard.…

Two short hours from Savannah, and here we are entering sunny ( scratch that) rainy Florida!! Quick stop at historical St. Augustine for lunch at Columbia, the spanish restaurant. Stroll through downtown and here we are on the road again for 5 or so hours towards Miami! And it rained, and rained, and rained…
