@MikiFerrandino i agree i went to work in one of the bases for the entire summer
and i garantee you when you step off the base you will be shocked (and embarassed) as to how much space the americans take compared to japanese!! there are entire open fields where nothing lies compared to japanese where everything is so crammed together maybe it is a cultural thing to not take up so much space but seeing as the americans are the guest you would thing they would follow the cultural norm...
Your videos are really nice! I wanna go to Japan someday, my grandparents were japanese and I am learning japanese, I also want to tell u that u are very handsome!!!!!
Wow! Thanks for this. I lived in Okinawa from the late 70s to the early 80s, 4 yrs total, and have been dying to go back for ages now. Some of my best childhood memories are of Okinawa, the people, friends, and my first experience in martial arts - Shorin Ryuu Karate. Can't wait to see it all again and how it's changed.
The Whale Sharks were feeding when i went. Quite cool to see how they feed its like a vacuum. Okinawan girls are one of the best looking girls in the world wish i could of talk to them... and for them to know what i was saying.
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I somewhat recognize you! Kadena High class of 2000 too! found you commented on a youtube video so I investigated. I miss Oki so much. I HAVE to go back someday. I consider it my home.
If you really want to experience true paradise, you should go to Laos. They have large waterfalls, blue lagoons, misty mountains, and mysterious jungles. You can ride elephants and swim with the Mekong River dolphins!
I´m going to Japan next week. Do you now how much it cost to fly from Tokyo to Okinawa? I have a friend that lives there. i saw on a site that it cost like 900 dollar to fly to Okinawa and back to Tokyo. I can only be there for at most 4 days so it´s not worth it if it cost that much.
Thanks for posting man. I spent three years aboard MCAS Futenma, and I can honestly say I had the time of my life on that island. You vid brought back so many memories...
Hey i'm from there is my fav island in the whole world, i'm actually moving there in a few months to study japanese can't wait super excited, haha the rental car is so cute suits you perfectly lol
you said youre half canadian, so i assume youre from canada? if so. im from wisconsin. tell me how HOT is it really in Okinawa (to someone that is from the cold half of the hemisphere, haha)?
yo man nice vid, i almost died when u got out the car it was like ooo, the inside is nice then when outside it looked like it be the new barbie mobile lol
hey zoha1956...im normally a let everyone learn the hard way type o guy but ill tell u it its hhhhoootttt!!! check to see when the typhoon season begins and enjoy the the beaches. Yata!
wat a car colourrr.. so BLUE... and wat in the world were those snake like things coming out of the sand? and were those sting rays? it was so longgg i thought it was a loch ness monster LMAO
random question: is that a rental car or your own? If it's a rental car, what exactly are the pre-reqs for attaining one? I'm hopefully teaching English next year in Japan and wanted to do a little exploring of my own!
keep up the vids man, they are hyping me up like crazy!!
I have been to Kyushu but never been to Okinawa. I hear it is a beautiful place. I would love to visit there one day. Okinawa has a rich culture and history. It's also the origin of Japanese Karate.
Have you been to Nijima? It's one of the islands off Tokyo and a cute little island. It's popular among surfers.
I am a dolphin trainer in Orlando Florida and we have a type of whale common to Japan called a "false killer whale" . I lived in Japan for 6 months but missed Okinawa :( Thanks for sharing! I also learned recently that Kenichi Matsuyama ("L" of death note) played a dolphin trainer in a movie called "Dolphin Blue" based on a true story about a dolphin named Fuji at Okinawa aquarium who lost his tail fluke and had a prosthetic one made. Do you know about Fuji?
Is it okay to say that Okinawa is oh-so-beautiful? Furthermore, is it okay to say that I love Okinawa? Furtherestmore, is it okay to say that I want to die in Okinawa?
I'm glad you made a trip down there. So how do you compare the big metropolis lifestyle to mellow Okinawa?
Haha I would say the last comment is a bit much... but then again, since I hadn't any practice driving on the left side, my friends were pretty scared. So I eased their minds by saying Okinawa would be a beautiful place to die!
Who you go with? Where you stay? You buy a package deal? You got an international drivers license? Blondes or burnettes? Boxers or Breifs? Batman or Leonardo? Trojan or Lifestyles?
friends! a hotel! cheapass package deal! got mah intl license braa! that's a tough one, depends on my mood! boxers, but lately I'm thinkin briefs, maybe im getting old? I can't even answer that one... okay yes i can: batman! Trojan all the way!
5 days was too short =( haha, one of your underground bands? hehe. I think I've heard your ranting about them before. But anything outta Okinawa is generally wicked.
Yes, we saw a damn lot and I got about 6 months of driving into 5 days. Rent-a-car is godly!

...5 days... 10 days in Okinawa and you haven't seen any of the 32 us.army.bases or heard the deafening sound of their useless vehicles
endlessly roaming/flying around?!?
haven't been to Henoko-bay or up to Takae with your nice rent-a-car?!?!?
