I'm Having Withdrawals...
After being able to spend almost a month in Okinawa with Cindy and family, I am definately having withdrawals. I MISS THEM! Little Maren is such a sweet baby, and the boys are so cute with her. We were pretty busy and the time went by so fast! It doesn't seem like I was there as long as I was.

SNORKELING IN THE EAST CHINA SEA!
Chase, Cade, and I went snorkeling. I had never tried it before.......it was awesome! We ended up going to the sea wall then swimming out a ways. I was pretty impressed at how good Cade did (he had a life vest on, but wow.... you should have seen him!) Actually I was pretty proud of myself as well (no life vest!). We saw a lot of sea cucumbers, awesome colorful fish, and even some small barracudas.
Nago Pineapple Park...
Unmanned remote "pineapple carts" took us through the tropical greenhouse/gardens. It was fun to see how pineapples grow in their palm tree surrounded fields. Wow, I didn't know there were 100 types of pineapples. It was fun to walk through their market and taste all the samples!
Squadron Wives' Social
Cindy took me to a social that the wives were having. They had a cooking demonstration and it was fun to sample the sushi as well as other Japanese foods. Before the evening was over, they gave out some prizes and since they figured I hadn't been there very long, I got the "chopstick challenged" prize which was a bottle of sake and chopsticks.
