April 14th, we went out to visit a church in Hamahiga Island in the morning.
This island has two towns, "Hama" and "Higa." And the
name of island is "Hama-Higa." It's a pretty logical way to name
the island, but this logical way works if only few towns are in the island. 浜の教会の写真を撮るため、海中道路を通って浜比嘉島へ行きました。 |

We tried to visit this church several times before but not successful. This is the first time we met a pastor. The name of the church is "Salem Hama Church" and it is related to "Salem Miyazato Church" where we visited 2 days ago. 二日前に伺ったサレム宮里教会の姉妹教会に伺いました。以前も訪れたことはありましたが、誰もいませんでした。今回は牧師さんがおられて挨拶できました。 |

We went back to hotel to snorkel one more time! It's a little colder
than yesterday, but the ocean seems quieter. There were only 4 people snorkeled
beside instructors. A 5-year-old girl, Sakura and her mother went with
us. Sakura had some snorkel experiences before, but this time she was a
little too cold to enjoy. 再度シュノーケルに挑戦。今回は5歳のサクラちゃんと一緒でしたが、彼女にはちょっと寒すぎたようです。 |

After the lunch, we went to a famous aquarium "Chura-umi."
This aquarium is famous for its huge water tank. We saw 3 huge fish there.
The size of those fish shows it's possible for human to be swallow into
the belly of such fish. 美ら海水族館にも行ってきました。 |

April 15th, the last day in Okinawa. This trip was busy to meet people and do lots of marine activities. We could not say that we are rested, but we are refreshed. We hope we will have longer vacation next time. | |
