Yellow And Green Whats That Mean?

07/18/2008 typhoon

was before yesterday for Okinawa announced a typhoon. For me, it was therefore not sure whether I can fly back today (Friday) in Tokyo. Somehow, would it matter to me if I had to stay a few days in Okinawa. The people here are super sweet. As it stands now for the aircraft but there are no restrictions. The ferries, however, remain in port. That was yesterday already so. Too much wind or waves. Today I phoned yet with Yuki (exchange student from Okinawa, trained in Kriens). For a visit to me was the time but too short. I would have needed more time to go to Okinawa City, as if I had it there can be. I have instead considered the main street of Naha. A specialty Okinawa is the Habusake. Sake This is a Habuschlange it. I would have loved to buy what, which is very expensive and I think there are problems with it at customs. Therefore, I grabbed the bottle with Habusake without Habu. If I understood correctly, but the saleswoman was there mal ne snake in it.

Melina Velba In Bikini

Eat like a king

After Kyoto, I am once again traveled to Tone. One last time (in these deals) with the Shinkansen thundered across the landscape. Of clays from then again I've visited my Schulgspändli. Which is drinking well. I've missed the last train early in the morning and then I arrived back from Brigitte. As soon as I got home I realized that I got the phone from the family had lost. Normally, the mobile phone search is quite simple. It calls on it and wait until someone says decreases and where the phone is at the moment. In my case it was not possible because the battery was completely empty. On Sunday I went
the last time to karate training. As in the school I got by the karateka a farewell card with many good wishes. On the whole, I can not read but because they are written in Japanese. On Sunday, I've
then also packed my backpack for Okinawa. All with long sleeves and legs remained in tone. In Okinawa it's finally hot. Even from the plane saw the islands from super. at the airport have I then tried to obtain housing. Actually it was more the girl to the super considerable effort. Now I'm in the best accommodation I ever had in Japan. For Fr 21:50 I have here a bed, breakfast and dinner.
The dinner runs from 7:30 to about 10 clock. Cooked at the table. I'll try to make easy the same staff. On Monday there was okonomiyaki, a welcome dinner for a new staff member. I do that in Switzerland, then again. All you need is: cabbage, Ommlettenteig, fish, crabs and anything else that tastes good. Tuesday was Chickennugets and fried Ebi (shrimp) on the menu. Yesterday was Schweinetag. In Okinawa is a pig's head Specialty. There were, pig ears cut into strips, fried suction view, even a slice of pig's nose was on the buffet. That was for my taste but tough. Of course, tongue, liver, kidney, heart and skin were available. With a bit of sauce all taste pretty good. The occasion for this feast was the farewell to a staff member.
Besides the good food there are in Okinawa also see much. On Monday, I'm a bit rumgekurvt by bicycle in the city. The Museum of the Battle of Okinawa I visited on Tuesday morning. Actually I wanted to ride the bike there. About 90 minutes I would have Used for a path. join out of me but then driven by car. With a stop in a Destilerie awamori (Okinawa vodka). the afternoon, then I'm still gone on a cycling tour. Bin a long time I wandered up to the so-called "tropical beach" arrived. Along the way, I was stopped even by the U.S. Marine Corps. The wanted me probably do not have the base. When you enter the base without authorization will be punished according to Japanese law, not American.
Yesterday I took a day trip to Tokashiki. This is a small island off Okinawa. Before I went to the beach, I wanted to enjoy the view from the hill. The way up was extremely hot. Once at the top's has begun to ship. Really hard. It was quite pleasant as a cool shower. In the rain I am then walked back to the port. In another way, of course. Eventually a goal came with a warning Habu. Habu is the name of the most poisonous snake in Japan. Unfortunately (because no pictures) or fortunately (because so dangerous), I have no Habu's seen. The road that I went along, led by a kind of jungle. The Japanese grill, about 8 cm long and extremely loud, are currently active. took from the port I get a bus to the beach. The water is super clear. I think there's also Nemo fish. I have not seen. On the beach there were small pools must have been caused by the flood. Sometimes it small fish were caught in an aquarium. With the next tide to come but then again. not only on land, there are poisonous animals, at the ferry station is alerted by a poster on the dangers of the water. Tokashiki, the island guests last but not adopted by a rainbow.

Small people

This morning, I'm me, by bicycle, to the bamboo forest as the main goal, on his way. I was about an hour up the road I arrived at my first destination. A temple was, like so much else than in the UNESCO world cultural heritage (or something similar) found. I but not the temple but the entrance to the garden caught. Since then I am rumgeschlichen also quite long. The Japanese gardens make a slow. I prefer not to just go through the normal pace. And because it is so slowly, so you can see some of nature's beauty. For example, the "Eidechsli. While I took this picture, wound a snake, about 10 yards from me, away. The garden was disturbed by other visitors. Until I was ready with the camera, the snake crawled but already in the undergrowth. I could shoot only twice since it was already gone. Sorry. I have afterward even with the long telephoto searched for her, she could not find anymore. After the garden then I am back on the bicycle swung and I've been looking in the bamboo forest. There's really not much to say. That was beautiful. When I then took care of further activity, I noticed that there are very close to a monkey park. I've then also be studied. But I am quite a long run in Gaggo rum. Sometimes the cards are good from Lonely Planet nothing. Did the park but still found and was able to feed some monkeys. Thus, the half-way wild animals not to be used to us people we could feed them only through a grid. I was behind bars, not the monkey. After feeding but I was able to get out and had to be careful that I not stepped on the little beasts. Had to flee several times before that because I do not want to let me bite.
the way home, about 12km from Kyoto, I even found without a map. I'm getting to the big cities.

One of the last original castles. Of the few even the greatest. The wooden structure is built up beautifully. All 654 nails for the supporting structure were needed, are covered with flowers or ornaments. The top floor will be the covers even made of gold. Unfortunately, I missed the gold's to take pictures. The lower floors were painted black, and therefore not so special. As in the other locks the I visited, was the prospect of Himeji-jo great. After the castle we were still in the palace gardens. That's actually not that big. With all the intricate subdivisions you walk around but still pretty long. A uf any case, I'm once again a lot of flowers and small animals photographed. Today I've

Usually made of wood, stone or metal. In red, brown or stone. are on the Toriweg there are thousands of them. Sometimes it is even as in a tunnel.
