Friends Abroad, Karate Testing and Comprehensive Park

Holly signed up for a program called Friends Abroad. The program involves Japanese students who coming to Okinawa from mainland Japan to learn about the culture here - including the American military presence. So... this week Holly hosted four Japanese teenage girls for a day. Everyone had a great time and McCall especially loved making new friends...

A Teary Farewell (at least for McCall)


On Saturday Denver tested for his second yellow belt stripe...

After the karate testing we decided to unwind at an awesome and incredibly large park here called Comprehensive Park...

I don't even know what to say about this picture.

Denver, Congrats on your second yellow stripe! Have you met Yat-chan, the monkey from Japan who has a black belt? You should look him up so you guys can train together.
