Short fasting diet(spend one day with only liquid) to clear up stomach which is full of fat from trip,
Went relative's house with brother... and so on.

Annd back to reality from tmrw.
I will go to Osaka to set up schedule for Feb and Mar short term job.

Came back to real life.

Today's mor, I packed up luggage and said bye to ppl.
At the last, went to snorkeling at Kurima Is. where we went yesterday, too.

The view from Kurima bridge, connecting Miyako Is and Kurima Is.

Such a beautiful color....

At that spot, I met lots of colorful fish such as blue ones, rainbow color fish, etc...
I felt like I visited fish's world.

Haven't get pics from that, then, I will upload after I get it!

Such a beautiful island. Feeling like staying here more, I left here.
Hope I can have chance to come back again!

One more day.
I will leave Miyako Island(Okinawa) tmrw and back to Kobe.

It was really quick 10 days...
Kite surfing, eating, drinking...lots and lots..
Anyway, I had healthy & unhealthy life..

I had so much exercise, but I gained weights too..
Of course, it is sure I will cuz I ate lots and drunk.

Then, after back to reality, I will go to diet and body making life.

This Island is called that idealistic place to have slow life.
So relaxing and always spending time with own pace.

Today, we didn't get enough wind, then bit of sight seeing.
Went to Kurima island which is connected with Miyako Is.


From view point of Kurima Is.

And had gelato at small cafe .(Mango gelato assorted with Dragon fruits)


It was such a relaxing start of 2009.
In a good way, I will spend 2009 with own pace.

For 2009, I will try to have opportunities to teach Pialtes as an instructor.

In end of Jan(19-30), I will go to Philippines, Boracay for kite trip and body making.
In Feb & Mar, I got job as a English teacher for grade 6 students.
During these, hope to research and discuss for instructor opportunities.

Anyway, everyone, have a great 2009!

Almost end of 2008!!
Today, went kite surfing. I got some ride but it was too cold and light wind.
Finished kite and went Okinawa lunch!

Pork miso soup!

Yesterday, I got full day kite ride!
When I pulled over the car, somebody said
"Tako Tako Tako (It means KITE )
I looked around and there were no kite.
Then, when I looked at under the car, there was....

Octopus!!!!
It is another meaning of TAKO.
When the owner of our hotel picked up, it bited him..
It swelled up so much and he went to the hospital.
It was a bit of accident but at night , we had...


Tako yaki(ocutopus ball)
Such a delicious fresh ocutopus!

Anyway, 2008 will finish soon.
It was big transition year for me.
I had Pilates instructor training . I failed once but finally passed!

Also as a tourism job, I worked for Hayato as a coordinator.
It was the good position to have tourism job for me.

2008 was the year I looked around various world.
Starting from Vietnam, staying Canada, Dominican republic, Japan.

For 2009, I want to look around more world and start new career!

Hope everyone will have great new year!!
