A nice resort we stayed at on the Pacific side of Okinawa. The food was amazing. A nice pool but they closed it the last day to put Christmas Trees in it.

A nice day trip to Kouri Jima. The heart shaped rock. Beautiful blue water. The tourist attraction Kouri Ocean Tower and the very popular Kouri Shrimp restaurant.

While staying at Orion Resort in Motobu we walked to this cool spot and wondered thru all the streets lined with these trees planted to protect the homes from typhoons. "Bise Fukugi Namiki" is a tourist attraction located in Motobu-cho, northern Okinawa Prefecture.

Various temples and caves we explored in Okinawa.

One of our favorite resorts in Okinawa located on Miyagi Island. There is a nice beach nearby where we swam on Thanksgiving day. The resort has a big restaurant overlooking the ocean. It also has a nice public and private Onsen. There is also a small petting zoo with dogs, bunnies and goats.

Apparently these are literally everywhere. They are cheap and convenient. You can be walking through farm land and there will be a vending machine. Our favorite was the Sanpin jasmine tea.

Japanese convenience stores are amazing. The food is incredible. The staff is wonderful. They are so clean! Even the restroom. We love them all!

The Queen Beetle ferry from Fukuoka Japan to Busan South Korea. A long weekend before we left Japan.

Villages in Japan we have walked around. They are all amazing and clean and safe. We will never forget them.

A walking tour around a historic area in Kyoto. Very old homes and beautiful temples.

Another Airbnb experience. This was a day time walking tour in Kyoto which was once the capital of Japan. It started with a hike up a small mountain to a bamboo forest. Then it ended at one of the most famous temples in Japan. Dedicated to Inari, the deity of a good harvest and success in business, Fushimi Inari Taisha is the head of all of Japan's Inari shrines. The seemingly endless path of v...
