Okinawa, Keystone of the Pacific

okinawa-143 一泊ですが沖縄へ、梅雨の明けた沖縄は青空が広がり気温も30度以上、もう夏です。 どことなく Aloha Airlines の様な南西航空 (South West Airlines) Although it was just for one night, I headed for Okinawa just as the rainy season started here in Japan but as I arrived at the airport, it was above 30-degrees C (mid 80-degree F) just like summer. Somehow the look of this Southwest Airlines plane reminded me of Aloha Airlines.   okinawa-795 okinawa-121 沖縄と言えばここ、"Sam's Anchor Inn" 創業は昭和37年だそうです。 When you come to Okinawa, you have to visit "Sam's Anchor Inn". This place was established in 1962.   okinawa-125 okinawa-127 名刺だらけの階段を上がって行くと As you make your way up the staircase covered in business cards.   okinawa-146 沖縄プレート、昔は Black プレートが飾れていましたが今回は黄色でした。 Old Okinawa plates.
