So we had an adventure yesterday. We started out for Shuri Castel with 2 juice boxes an apple and some crackers. (Just a little unprepared.) It was 1000 degrees out side and two steps out of the car we were dripping wet. The kids were troopers. We stormed the castle walls and collected our stamps all along the way. Once we had filled our cards we turned them in for a prize. STICKERS!! WHOOAAA. Our next stop was to ride the mono-rail to Kokosai street for a little shopping. The kids loved the train, the shopping was not much fun. Ethan fell asleep and we had to carry him about a 1/2 mile to the next train stop. He is getting way to big for carrying. We were totally exhausted by the time we got to the car. We really did have a great time but it was a long day. We loaded the kids up in the truck and realized we had lost our parking ticket. Of course off base parking is sooo expensive but if you lose the ticket FORGET IT!! It cost us $50 to get our car out of the parking. Yes you read that right 50 bucks for 4 hours of parking. We didn't have enough yen and ended up having to buy some off of people in the parking lot. Lucky for us they were nice enough to help us out. What an adventure!

It's about time you added something to your blog!! Ü Sounds like you had a crazy yet fun time. I like how "this is a real train that people get in." Ü
What an adventure to Shuri castle. You are lucky that someone in the parking lot had yen they could sell. I loved hearing the boys singing their songs. What an imagination Dylan has.
Sounds like you had a ton of fun. I tried to show Grandma your blog but I couldn't because it was still private. She would like to see it. Email her and let her know how. I think the rest of us have gone public. I don't know if you are interested in doing that, but it would make it easier for her.
$50 parking!! yep--sounds like Japan!!! :D --Anyways, I really enjoyed reading that it was 1,000 degrees out! :D
