We're Here!

We made it Okinawa safely! The flights were great...good food, service, comforts as expected from a Japanese airline. The first leg was a straight shot to Narita, Japan...Danno enjoyed the complimentary beer and non-stop movies. We managed to watch five! (Seven Pounds, Yes Man, Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Slumdog Millionare, and Minority Report). Then a quick connecting flight to Okinawa, and strangely we got seats at the very front of plane where we enjoyed huge reclining seats with so much leg room, I didnt know what to do with it! hehe. And btw, our girl was more active than ever during the flights...crazily kicking and stretching my belly every which way! I think at some point she even had the hiccups.

We arrived right at the rainy season, so the air is cool, and not as hot and uncomfortably humid as expected. We're now at our temporary lodging and will begin the island exploration tomorrow with our sponsors. They've already been a great help to us by arranging our transportation from the airport, our lodging, and even stocked up our fridge with food.

Now we're off to conquer the time adjustment and must force ourselves to go to sleep! We'll be back with more updates soon.
