May 2004, Okinowa, Japan
This is the ring of a Bull Fight. The Bulls battle each other by pushing each other, head to head. Okinowa is famous for bull fighting. Unlike Spanish style, the bulls are not killed.
I thought this was special Okinowa boozes. But I later learned it was special vinager. Yuck! Some like it I guess.
This is a dish of Okinowa Ramen. (noodle soup)
Naha Airport is a very new and clean airport with a GREAT way of the run way. This is me on the plane.
