Cape Zanpa and The Zakimi Castle Ruins

On one of our excursions around the island, we decided to go to Cape Zanpa. It is a beautiful area, with a lighthouse and many walking paths. Unfortunately, it was so hot that we were unable to see it all but definitely want to go back! On our way home we decided to stop at the Zakimi Castle ruins....all that is left standing are the walls that went around the castle. It was built by a warlord and is now a world heritage site.

Our new adventure...

A lot has changed in our lives since the last time I updated our blog....the biggest change is that we are now living in Japan. It is a beautiful place and the people are so nice! We did have some issues with culture shock in the beginning but I think we are getting adjusted and are finding our way to making this our home for the next three years.....
