Vacation to Yoron Island










The Lord recently blessed us BIG time with a three day vacation to Yoron Island. Yoron is about 3 hours north of Okinawa, it is a small island about 11 miles around. It is a very beautiful island but like most are full of huge bugs of all different types. The weather was incredible, and the beaches were beautiful.

We spent two nights and three days there. We spent alot of time at the beach and the swimming pool. My back is paying for it today, I look like a rock lobster. The kids had a great time with the exception of Hannah getting an ear infection. Otherwise the Lord really blessed our time. Life in Okinawa is pretty busy for us so it was good to get away and refocus our vision upon Jesus, Savior of all. The ferry ride on the way home was a bit trying with Hannah's ear infection but by the grace of God we made it home. We thank the Lord for blessing us with the trip, we are totally humbled by God's goodness. It is just another testimony of His goodness and provisions for those that belong to Him. Praise the Lord! We hope that everybody enjoys the pictures, be encouraged.
