Fukugawa Falls and Cape Zanpa

We've had a couple of great weekends here in Okinawa!  The weather has been perfect so we took advantage of the nice days and got out as much as we could.  We haven't done a whole lot of hiking around here, which has been on our list of things to do/explore before leaving this summer.  Now that Quinn is as big as she is and...well, it's not blazing hot, we finally bought a hiking carrier and love it.

Last weekend we took an hour drive up north to Nago to Fukugawa Falls.  We were worried we wouldn't find it very well, but with a "dropped pin" and some windy roads, we made it.  The hike wasn't as long as we were hoping, but the end result was more than we were expecting!  It was beautiful.  We threw rocks in the water, made a fire, and just enjoyed the sounds of nature.  Much different than the "city" living we do here in Chibana/Okinawa City.  It was peaceful and so relaxing.

Today, we went back to our old stomping grounds in Yomitan and explored a few off-beaten paths on the running trail we used to run from our house.  The views at Cape Zanpa never get old and again, now that we have Quinn in the carrier, we can do so much more and let her see all the great views from different points, as well.  I think she was quite amazed today :)
