We went to Expo park where they have the world's second largest aquarium this past Monday for our day off and a few of us who have been through the aquarium went off to enjoy the other parts of the park including the dolphin area and the Okinawan village. they have a welcome house with host ladies dressed up in traditional okinawan garb who served any guests that come to the house tea, okinawan brown sugar, and okinawan donuts and they had on display and for use the traditional okinawan stringed instrument called the sanshin. i had th opportunity to learn and play one of the traditional okinawan songs called tein sagu no hana which is about a small okinawan flower. twas pretty cool. i find myself humming the tune now and then. really was a blessing to relax that day and just soak in the fresh air and sun and a little bit of the rain. praise the Lord because He held back the rain because right about the time we left it started to pour. until the next update.
