Mike, Okinawa certainly seems to be a very scenic and beautiful place ! Aren’t you lucky to be living in the garden of earthly Eden !
! LOL !
Forget about the Dragon, your pictures of the Cherry Blossoms in bloom and the Waterfalls look oh so breathtaking. The Waterfalls particularly !
Tell me, do the Japanese also celebrate the Chinese New Year ?!? Weird
Sumitran,
The Lunar New Year is more than likely celebrated anywhere around the world where you might find Chinatowns or a large Chinese population. It is not recognized as an official holiday in mainland Japan but, down my way, in Okinawa we sort of make it an unofficial holiday and celebrate, anyway!
