It was the last full day in Okinawa, and it was irritatingly beautiful but excruciatingly hot. I donʻt know what it is about heat and I, but it would seem that I have been completely drained every day merely from being in the heat here. They brought up going to the beach, but it was so hot Iʻm not sure that I could just sit outside for that long a time.
Today, we went to some random stores and ate at some American places. I think that some people will look at my trip here so far and wonder why I didnʻt do more Okinawan-ey things here. Well, the answer is itʻs hot and there isntʻ that much Okinawan-ey stuff to do. I asked people what I should do and no one really had very many recommendations aside from the aquarium. I like Okinawa, it has a good spirit and people have been very friendly but I do have a sense of unhappiness from the general public with the many foreigners who live here. It seems that they are overall over it.
Tomorrow I leave Okinawa and return to Matsuyama for my last 3 weeks of my program. I feel rejuvenated having been allowed to visit my family here in Okinawa (who really, I didnʻt see very much even when they lived in Hawaii) and I find myself looking forward to the future.
