Sea World Okinawa Style







Okinawa has an amazing aquarium boasting the largest open-water tank on earth. We went for the first time last week and decided it's pretty much the coolest place ever! We ate lunch right outside the giant tank as huge sharks, manta rays, and other unknowns swam by. The dolphin show was awesome, even though Ethan lost his lunch on my lap. As we were leaving the park, we found ourselves in a crowd of Japanese people who were staring at our American boys as they entered the park. Ethan picked that opportune moment to lose the rest of his lunch causing the crowd to scream and step back, leaving a 10-foot radius around us. One lady quickly handed Randy some napkins, then hurried off before she could become contaminated. Good times!
Anyway, this place just keeps getting cooler by the day! You should definitely come visit (when Ethan doesn't have the stomach flu).
