My parents base passes expired on Sunday so we took our last outing until they get approval for an extension on Saturday. Because the weather was so beautiful we headed to the Fukushen Garden in Naha. Because there were seven of us we rented a car so we could all arrive at the same time. The garden was a gift to Okinawa and is set up like a chinese garden. There are beautiful ponds teaming with Koi fish and a few large pagodas scattered throughout the grounds. Gabriella spent her time tossing fish food to the Koi and turtles. The day was hot and wielding the double stroller through the grounds was a little more challenging than expected, but we managed. We took a brief snack and diaper break on a shaded bench overlooking the gardens. On the way home Greg took Gabriella and my parents to the Futenma Cave shrine and I headed straight home with the twins. Our time out of the house was appreciated by everyone. We are hoping that my parents will get their pass extension soon so we can once again venture off base.
