Misadventures of the nomadic, intrepid Hosea-san family's 3 year tour of Okinawa. Thursday, July 9, 2009. Cultural Crafts Tour - Mommy Time! Factory. Honestly, it's way too much to go into so I highly recommend the link I've highlighted. I made my own bingata today. It takes several days to process so I won't be able to post pictures of that until later next week. It was soooo much fun! After that, we had time to squeeze in the awamori. Next on the itinerary was a stop at the mall. Oh.my.gosh! Factory...

Luke 21: 11 - And great earthquakes shall be in diverse places, and famines and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven. He said that's because there's no media ...

Misadventures of the nomadic, intrepid Hosea-san family's 3 year tour of Okinawa. Sunday, August 31, 2008. Where East Meets West. Yesterday we went for a ride.

We inadvertently put that off for a spontaneous trip to the northern cape of Okinawa. You guessed it. We got lost. How can you get lost on an island? Can you say awkward? Well, we...

You know you don't like it either! Seems to be pretty popular around here. I mean, take a look at the first picture. Where else could you go and see so many square centimeters of space devoted to such a delicacy as SPAM? You know how they say the only things to survive a nuclear bomb are cockroaches and Twinkies? This is me and the band!
