Summer Okinawa


This is a picture of Minna Island taken from the Tropical Dream Centre's incredible Shell tower. It is easy to see how low it sits in the ocean, with little undulation in the overall profile. Just as out family spent our summer holiday on the Scottish island of Millport, getting there by train and paddle steamer, so my wife spent her family summer vacations on Minna Island, taking a chug chug fishing boat to get there, bathing in miniscule amounts of water as then water was extremely scarce with no source from the mainland, which is not the provision. Here is the google satellite image of the island:
