Okinawa trip : 8

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

I went on a trip to Okinawa for 2 days and 1 night with my friend,last month.
It was a short trip, but that was a very fulfilling trip.

After eating a hamburger, we returned the rental car.
We had time a little more, so we decided to take a walk through downtown in Naha.

This is the Kokusai-street which is a big shopping street in Naha.

There are many souvenir shops in the street.
The street is bustling with tourists.

These are ornaments of the Shisa.
Shisa is a traditional Ryukyuan decoration, often in pairs.
People in Okinawa place pairs of shisa on their rooftops or flanking the gates to their houses,for protection from some evils.

The Shisa becomes the mascot representing Okinawa.

The Shisa is drawn on the entrance of the Makishi public market which is a tourist attraction.

My friend bought the ornament of the Shisa for a souvenir.
We enjoyed  shopping of the souvenir.

We arrived at the Naha airport at 17:00 and came back to Fukuoka by airplane of 18:00 PM.
Our total times in Okinawa were only 19 hours, but my friend was happy about this trip.

I want to go to Okinawa again.

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

I went on a trip to Okinawa for 2 days and 1 night with my friend,last month.
It was a short trip, but that was a very fulfilling trip.

After watching a beautiful ocean view, we stopped by a hamburger shop.

This is the hamburger shop, "Jef".
Jef is the hamburger chain store which only Okinawa has.

Jef has a system such as the drive-though.

We can order the menu from the parking lot.
The staff brings ordered foods to a car, we pay the price to the staff.
It is convenient that we don't need to get off a car.

This is the hamburger which I ordered.
It  is "Nuyaru burger"
This is an original hamburger by Jef.

This is a hamburger with pork luncheon meat and cheddar cheese and the omelette, the omelet with bitter gourds inside..

The omelet matched cheddar cheese well, the hamburger was delicious!!
I love Okinawa foods.


After that, we finished driving and returned the rental car.
However, we decided to take a walk through downtown because we had time a little more.

Hello.

I went on a trip to Okinawa for 2 days and 1 night with my friend,last month.
It was a short trip, but that was a very fulfilling trip.

After eating lunch,we went to the beach to watch a beautiful ocean view.

This is "Churasun-beach".
This beach is located near Naha Airport.

That's why, many planes were flying above the beach.

The noise was terrible, but the ocean was beautiful there.

The transparent sea was very beautiful.
We stood looking at the beautiful ocean view.

It was the first time for my friend to look at such a beautiful beach, so she was impressed very much.
I was healed, too.
