Rapasardo's + Browns

This weekend is a long one for us - which we of course LOVE!  Tony has a 4 day weekend and I have a 3 day, so we decided to make a little bit of a road trip with the Rapasardo's on Saturday!  Tony and Andrew work together at 3/12...and well, Ali and I seem to get a long quite well.  When I heard she used to work at LuLu Lemon and had a "thing" for Anthropologie, it was love at first sight.

Saturday morning we were texting with ideas for the day and decided on the infamous Okinawa Aquarium.  It was about an hours drive north from Yomitan, so not too bad.  The Aquarium was very neat.  As you can probably imagine, the fish were HUGE and very beautiful.  We had a good time walking around, the guys read just about everything they could - while Ali & I admitted that often times we look at the words, but never really read it...or care TOO much.  On our way home we stopped at Blue Seal to get some ice cream.  I don't think that will be the last time I stop there - a scoop of sea salt cookie was pretty darn good.

We all went our separate ways for a couple hours and then met up at a cool rooftop bar/restaurant.  Unfortunately when we got there they had stopped serving food, but we were able to enjoy a drink on the rooftop.  Very cool setting!  So we ventured off to a place nearby that we have all driven past a million times, but have never gone.  Good thing we did!  It was a hole-in-the-wall (probably why we haven't stopped yet) but delicious!  Each table had their own grill and you order raw food and cook it yourself.  Genius idea for a restaurant if you ask me.  Ali and I got the shrimp and vegetables...I was able to cook the shrimp, but tony had to peel off the head for me. Gross. 

It was such a fun day and evening!  Sad to report the Rapasardo's are leaving end of December!  We are so happy for them, but selfishly SO BUMMED!

Here are a few pictures:





We had great laugh from this picture.

There was some presentation going on.  Of course we couldn't understand a word of it.
