This blog is a record of my time in Okinawa. Last night Shuri Jo burned down to the ground. This is the most awful thing. I have to mention it.

Okinawa is a small island. Shuri Jo represented the history and culture of Okinawa to all inhabitants and also to newcomers like me.
Too awful. So sad.

Sad indeed. A pity that we didn’t visit when we went into Naha.
