Back to Blue

Thirty seven days and a wake up until the trip.  Once again taking that trip back to a place that I cannot justifiably describe.  It's incredibly blue, immensely warm, and immeasurably friendly.  Back to blue...opening the blinds to see what I have missed for over 3 long years.  It's home, it's comforting, it's Okinawa.
Having lived here in the past for an extended period, I am no longer viewed as a gaijin, or foreigner.  I am rather referred to as Uchinanchu, an Okinawan in spirit.  Quite an honor for me.  Okinawans are quite an accepting society.
I promise to post a picture a day to document my stay.  Pictures of the bluest seas, the greenest mountains, children playing, flowers blooming. and of course the food of the Island.  I will narrate my world daily in a few lines, and I will write poetry when inspired by my Muse.  I might even complain about the stifling heat. That's what I promise.  I hope you'll follow this blog starting in mid May.
