We are the Stuarts (formerly of Imperial) now residing in Okinawa, Japan.

This blog started from a desire to bridge the miles as we were preparing to leave the USA for 3+ years. It has turned into much more. It's part travel diary, part personal reflection, part "sociology of military life" and part mommy-blog. We hope you read something here that is interesting to you (or at least not a total waste of your time).

Wonky weather


Yes, weather on Okinawa is nothing if not unpredictable. You need to come prepared with sunglasses...and an umbrella. Yesterday, we arrived at the commissary to clear skies...and with a snorkeling appointment to make. When we left the commissary, the sky was almost dark as night in the ocean direction, but blue with white clouds in the opposite direction. By the time we reached home (10 minutes later) this is what we had:


Complete with lightening and thunder.

So much for snorkeling. Sorry, kiddos!
