I spent my Eid at a conference in Okinawa. Food
was an interesting part of the trip. This "Pig ear slice of peanut
butter dress" was tasty but had an unpleasant texture. But it had to be
tried because of the awesome name. The menu looked to have been
translated using a dictionary by some one who clearly didn't know
English. There were a bunch of really awesomely named dishes.
To prove how interesting our food was, here is a picture of two of my students (both named David) taking a picture of our meal.
The only touristy thing I had time for in Okinawa
was going to Shurijo Castle which was destroyed in WW2 but has been
restored. This was one of the gates to the castle grounds.
