This trip around the island has been different this time around with Jackson. This is now his fourth time to these places...however, some of them are new and it seems as if ALL of them are new to him! He actually seemed aware of the dolphins in the dolphin show at the aquarium, enjoyed sitting at the table at Pizza in the Sky and noticed and yet was hesitant about the butterflies at the Butterfly Garden. It was just so neat to see his little face light up (or sometimes just the opposite when he was "not so sure" about something) on this trip. Below are some pictures from our recent adventures with Uncle Ryan. We added a trip to the Butterfly Garden for the first time, which was a cool experience. And yep, that is a picture of one of those butterflies landing on Jackson's arm...one of those "not so sure" moments for him. He loved looking at them on other people!

"Wow, Dad, that thing is neat. Just don't let it get too close...'kay?"
"Cool, Mommy! Look at all those butterflies on your head!"
"Mommy, those butterflies were cool on YOU...not so sure about ME!"
Pizza In The Sky
I must say that we are taking our last tour of the island in true Okinawa style...in the heat, humidity and rain! After all, it wouldn't be the full Okinawa experience without all these things! We have had fun showing Ryan all of these sights and seeing them one last time. How we will miss these things, but are glad that some day, we can pull these pictures out and show Jackson that he too enjoyed discovering Okinawa!

You guys have been able to move to some great places. One nice thing about the military is you can see and live in places you never thought you would. Thanks for the island tour even though we could not be there too.
I agree with Vicky, thanks for sharing these with us. I can only hope that we can share in your next journey abroad!
