Saturday in Okinawa

This afternoon we ate lunch at what "we" Americans call the Vending Machine Restaurant. When we can't read the sign we just make up our own name! It works! Let me show you why we call this restaurant what we do!

 This is how you order! When you walk in there is a machine that you put your yen in, make your selection, get your ticket and sit down! The food is then prepared and brought to your table.

We order the garlic fried rice every time! It is so delicious! It comes out smokin' hot and you have to mix in your egg for it to cook! That Pepsi cost Y100 which is $1.20- it's tiny and there is no such thing as a free refill!                                           


After lunch we took a drive. I took this picture from our van driving down the highway! So beautiful!

We pulled on the side of the road and took these pictures. The bridge crossed over to another island. So we went over and checked it out!

We ended up finding this beach called Ikei Beach or Ikei Island. I found my new summer spot! Only 30 minutes from our house!

We had such a blessed day! I'm so ready for summer!
