There's a typhoon scheduled to reach Okinawa this Saturday or Sunday, so it looks like we might get a nice view of that. That's pretty exciting! Growing up on the east coast of the US, I've been through many hurricanes, but I have no idea what to expect with a typhoon. Fortunately, the house has special shutters for covering the windows in the event of a typhoon.
I went for a long walk by myself exploring the area nearby the house and came across a large market area close to the airforce base. I was surprised by just how large it is. There are all sorts of side connected corridors and streets that make up the market area. Unfortunately, it was a Sunday morning when I was there, so most shops were closed.
On my way back from the walk, I saw this sign. I'm not really sure what it's advertising, but it looked neat.
