Japan, Part 3

Hello!
Stefhan and I are still in Japan, preparing to go home tomorrow! It feels strange... we finally adjusted to the jet lag, and have been gone for SO LONG, but it still feels weird...

I know I'm behind, its been a whole week full of activities that I need to recap.

View from the Aquarium

On Sunday, our first full day in Okinawa, my dad drove us North to Nago, where the aquarium and sea park was. Aquariums are always cool, and the one back home in DC or Baltimore is so expensive... I realized I hadn't been to an aquarium in YEARS.
We managed to catch a dolphin training show, which still has that little-kid appeal to all of us.
After the aquarium we trekked up some crazy mountains to find Pizza in the Sky. It is exactly what it sounds like. A Pizza, on a vertical cable pole that will take you up to the sky. You have to wear all these oxygen thingies too.  But no eating.

I kid, I kid. It's a pizza restaurant on the side of a cliff. Beautiful views, and the pizza was good, too. The thing with Japanese food though... anything that's not traditional Japanese gets corn put on it. Fucking corn. We politely asked to not get the corn on the pizza... please!

It was a pretty popular site for both locals and military families, about an even Japanese-American mix.

Yea, he's alright.  I'll update more soon!
