Yesterday's activities

Yesterday was mostly running errands with the Thomas family. I got to experience going on base at Kadena for the first time. Man is it a huge base, and a very busy one! For breakfast I had cream of wheat with fruit! It's as very delicious as per usual for Thomas family food! We stopped on our way into town and got nagetti, which is tuna in rice, wrapped in seaweed. It was surprisingly very very delicious! We got it at a local mart called FamilyMart (think a Japanese 7/11)), and when we entered, after a minute, the employees loudly greeted us with "Welcome to Family Mart" and bowing.

After our errands, we went on a scenic route that took us through Torri Station. Of interest, this beach is where the Marines went ashore, unapposed on April 1st, 1945. Then later in the evening we went to a get-together that Kurt's boss, who is a very nice guy by the way, invited us too. There were some chocolate cakes for Nyah's birthday (happy birthday Nyah!) and a bunch of really really good food. The get together lasted for about 3.5hours, but it was pretty fun and entertaining and the people were very nice! Today, we are going to go kayaking out to maybe see the whale sharks. I am not sure what else is on the agenda for today, but when I know, I will as more pictures and updates to the blog!
