Cape Hedo-misaki

After watching Florida trounce Ohio State in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament Champtonship, the Miller brothers (Rick & Dan) decided to join me in a driving tour to the northern end of the island & back. It was a beautiful day & a very scenic drive. These photos were taken at the park that lies at the northern end, Cape Hedo-misaki.

Okinawa Prefecture is made up of a chain of subtropical islands located about 1,000 miles southwest of Tokyo. For those more familiar with US geography, a similar longitudinal difference would be New York to the Bahamas. Many Japanese associate the islands with a vacation resort. In mid-October 2007, it was 65 degrees F. in Tokyo, and 85 degrees in Okinawa. We live on the largest island, Okinawa! The island is about 464 square miles (66 miles long by 7 miles wide, roughly) with a population of about 1.2 million. And while we do live near the city of Okinawa also, we actually live in the town of Chatan. Our 3rd-floor apartment overlooks the East China Sea on the island's west coast & about 1/4 of the island's landmass lies south of us. We are around latitude +26° 18' 15.06" & longitude +127° 45' 36.01".
