Things to do in Okinawa – AmericaFest on Kadena Air base and Southeast Botanical Gardens

[Applause] [Music] We decided to come to Alexandria Palms first before it gets crowded. I mean, it’s pretty dead. It just opened, but we wanted to try to get some pictures. But it’s so nice. And it’s getting warmer out, so why not come and enjoy a perfect day here? It’s a slight breeze, which makes it feel better. [Music] Oh, that’s pretty. [Music] [Music] Touch it, Oliver. Someone’s getting Give him one. Give that one. Don’t get scared. Go over there with the haircuts. Can I help you? Yes, I’ll help you. They’ll have a bird show at 11:00. It’s only 10:26, so we’ll come back for that. But all of this, if you come at night, they have this all lit up. lemonations and I’ve seen pictures where it looks so beautiful and we thought about doing a day pass but we’re like, “Oh, can you come and then come back?” We weren’t sure. So, we just did the morning one. Next time we might do the nighttime just to see all the lights. [Music] Cy that way. And then the monkeys are probably over there. Let’s go see Keepy Baras. Oh my god. Are we pent? Oh, I know. Dad, Dad, are you excited to bite you? Oh, that’s why they’re all there. So many signs that say do not touch. [Music] They see this. They see the lettuce. Don’t eat me. Don’t eat me. Say, “Excuse me.” Excuse me. You go, mister. Leave them. See how they bite the tongs? It They’re huge in person. That was a cool experience. All right. So, take advantage of this before we go to mainland cuz mainland it gets super packed to do this. So, this is where you draw your fortune. So, you put a coin, you shake it, your fortune stick, you memorize the number, then that number you get the number from is 40. And then you pull your fortune. Favorable luck. General luck is time for a challenge. If you really wish to achieve an aim, desire it from the bottom of your heart and make all your efforts for achieving it. Such an endeavor will improve your luck regardless of future results. And then love, work, study, money, love a unique person. Support others without experience praise. It is time to broaden your knowledge of science. Your past success is hindering your future success. Visit your dream place and round stone. So you got a good fortune. Go see the bird show right now. It’s about to start. That’s what probably what they’re saying. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] Is that you ever heard of dessert? Your first beach experience and you got a crab on your toe. That was him, right? That was him right there. No, the way you were moving. Oliver got a crab on his toe when we were coming back. It could have been me cuz I was like right in front of him. So, we’re currently at the America Fest 2025. [Music] [Applause] [Music] My hand. [Music] This is cool for the kids to see and experience all this. The cobra. It’s got the or the we’re trying to get as well to keep and then [Music] look. I’ve always been fascinated with airplanes and like the cockpit. So, this is cool. This is fun. [Music] And then they have this America Fest open to, you know, the military, Japanese locals. So, it’s pretty much for everyone on this island. We able to get a shuttle from the BX and get here. Other cars are making their way over here. So, it’s like a huge line to get into the parking lot. So, we got here. Shuttle started at 10:30. So, we got lucky. We got one of the first few shuttles to get us out here. Fast they go in this like super fast. What’s that? What’s that? feels so awkward holding this camera up. Like I’m still getting used to it, especially in public. But like everyone has like either their selfie stick, their like camera out. A lot of Japanese locals are recording. So I don’t feel so embarrassed right now. Now we’re going to go get some food because we are hungry. The cookie monster. You guys want to try? They have alafrescas, Mexican street corn all these drinks. I don’t even want a sugary drink cuz it’s so like I like I feel like I just need water right now. But I do want an [Music] icy [Music] [Music] Heat. [Music] Heat. Heat. Heat. [Music] You’re such a big trooper cuz you walk a lot here. [Applause]

In this video we head to Southeast Botanical Gardens and enjoy a sunny day petting and feeding capybara’s and other animals. This place is so pretty and you can get some amazing pictures! we spent little time at the beach since it was low tide.

The 2nd day we went to AmericaFest on Kadena Air Base. This was located on Base and was open to military and Japanese locals. This was a 2 day event and our first time going. It was cool to see the aircrafts and being able to see inside. So much food to choose from and great live music.
