Although the weather wasn't great that day and it kept raining, thankfully we had a chartered car, which prevented things from getting too messy! We also successfully visited the classic Cape Manza and Churaumi Aquarium. The Kuroshio Sea tank with its giant fish was truly breathtaking and moving. I love everything about the ocean; it's incredibly therapeutic!

The most impressive experience was Okinawa World and Gyokusendo Cave! It was truly beautiful; nature's craftsmanship is amazing. Our last day of the trip was super enjoyable, thanks to our driver and guide, EK, who made it very satisfying. Highly recommend!

It's absolutely beautiful and definitely worth visiting! However, the other eco exhibit is just okay, so you don't necessarily need to spend extra money on it. Just buy tickets for this exhibit instead! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Aside from a slightly alarming check-in process because we hadn't received the code until the day of arrival, thankfully my daughter, an English teacher, was with us. She used her fluent English to communicate with the staff via the tablet at the front desk and obtain the code, otherwise, we almost ended up sleeping on the street ๐Ÿ˜…. Everything else was great. The room had everything we needed, was spacious and comfortable. When we got hungry in the middle of the night, we could go to a nearby store to buy things and cook them back at the room. Pots, pans, and dishes were all provided. We were a family of 5, with four beds, one Japanese-style room, two bathrooms, and a washing machine. The room also provided board games for the whole family to play together. There's a 100-yen shop nearby that has some cosmetics and even without tax refunds, they're cheaper than drugstores. This is a place that will be on our list of places to stay again ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป. The photos I provided are a bit blurry because I used video to record, so I can only share screenshots for those who need them for reference.

This Okinawa Central Day Tour departs in the afternoon, allowing you to have a good rest before sightseeing. The meeting point is in front of the Prefectural Office, which is easy to find. After roll call and boarding, the driver will give out small gifts, which is very thoughtful! The driver's driving skills are good, and the car is clean and comfortable. Along the way, we visited Naminoue Shrine, Cape Zanpa, American Village, and Southeast Botanical Gardens. After visiting Naminoue Shrine, you can take photos and see the scenery at the nearby beach. In American Village, you can watch the sunset by the sea or visit the nearby Aeon shopping mall. The only pity was that it was cloudy and rainy that day, and the Cape Zanpa lighthouse was not open, so we couldn't climb to the top to see the view. The illuminated show at Southeast Botanical Gardens is beautiful and worth a visit.

There was a bit of a delay time-wise, but overall things went pretty smoothly. The light show at Southeast Botanical Gardens is beautiful. You should go see it.
