It's my last weekend on Okinawa, and the weather is gorgeous. To the beach!

UPDATE: No ocean swimming, because the migrating jellyfish are all over the place, and no one wanted to get stung. But Torii Beach does have a nice 60' tall waterslide, so we went on that. For reasons too complicated to explain, a second-grade girl used me as her personal water slide steed. Going face down and face first is a lot of fun, but with someone riding on my back, the friction scraped the skin over the points of my hips. The shrieks of glee from my passenger made it worth doing a couple of times. There is still water in my sinuses.

I also played volleyball. My serve was inexplicably not up to form, but I did get a couple of nice pancake digs. The local sand is ground-up coral and not very fine-grained, so it gave me a nice exfoliation treatment for free.

The frequently-applied suncreen seems to have done it's job, as I am currently "lightly toasted", while some of the other guys are all the way up to "lobster".
