This is from a friend who just travelled to Okinawa

"I have just back from Okinawa and I can say the trip was great! Nice weather,
besutiful ocean and especially  food is great.

Okinawa is the southern-most island in Japan as you know. It was still very hot
nearly 30 degree. It is under 15 dgree at my city [in Aichi] so you can imagine
how hot! I could hear cicadas sound.
In Okinawa, there are lots of special fruits which are I cannot easily buy in
main land of Japan. Like Dragon fruit, Star fruit etc... they are so juicy, so
tasty!!

I went to historycal places, Shuri Castle, Himeyuritower and so on. Okinawa has
a very different culture as main land of Japan. Even I do not understan what
people say. It is like a foreign country. I think everything in Okinawa is very
similar to Taiwan."
