I dream about going to Japan and I so want to go to Okinawa. I have a really good friend from there and she has always told me it's such a lovely place!
Nice article. However, I do not think I will give goya another try ;) My husband ordered it once within the first couple months of us being here- not knowing what it was. He literally took maybe 3 bites and then ate his bowl of rice and wanted to go to Burger King. I tried his, and there is NO way I could have forced myself to eat it either! I guess you have to have a taste for it!!!
We did venture to Beach Rock Village recently, but we didn't stay because we weren't prepared. We ate in the yurt though and climbed in the tree houses. The road to get there was NUTS!!!
Ocean Expo Park is a great place to stop in Okinawa. It's home to Churaumi Aquarium - the second largest aquarium in the world. Seeing the whale shark swim by makes it worth the stop just by itself. There is also a great dolphin show and a small village of traditional houses.
