Nagannu Island, Okinawa

Hi Everyone! I know it's been a while since Oki and I have made an appearance. We have been busy starting our own little business, called Whimsical Wood Decor! It will be up and running soon and we are so excited to share our custom-designed wood decor with you - be sure to check Facebook soon for our business page!

Anyways, a while back Oki and I took an adventure with our friend Laura to Nagannu Island. It is an uninhabited island a short ferry ride away from Naha port. People visit the island for a quick little get away and to enjoy the beach. We were lucky enough to stay overnight in one of their cabins!

 The beach. Definitely an uninhabited island!

Oki insisted that we try these delicious Japanese "beers" 

There were hermit crabs everywhere! I nicknamed the beach "hermit crab island." These guys are in a hermit huddle.

Big and small, hermit crabs were everywhere! 

Oki made a friend more her size, his name was Hermie.

More sunset!

Our little cabin

Oki found a giant shell she can perch on! She likes to stand on tall things, it makes her feel taller. 

The island turned very different at night. We felt as if we were the invaders on the hermit crabs' territory. They came out in full force at night and were very active. It was pretty cool to see, although I did have fears that I was going to dream of talking hermit crabs! Good times :)
