Slides in Okinawa

I went with Bambi and the kids to take some surprise photos for their dad. We went to American Village first and then over to the drop slide park. (Not sure if that's the real name but it's the only name I know.) The first play ground was pretty cool. They has these cement toys that spins around. This one I'm on you can see how it tilts, so once you get started it goes round with a up and down effect. Really neat! Then we went over to the drop slide. I watch Owen go down a few times and deiced it would be fun to at lest try. If you look down it's a scary but once you let go and drop it's a blast. The goal is to go so fast that you finish both slides. I haven't seen that yet but I'm sure it has been done.
This is the roller slide. It's made of hundreds of spinning bars. You sit on the bars, push of and they roll you down to the bottom. I burnt my butt twice when I went down. Bambi said cardboard prevents that. It was awesome. The last time I went down I bumped into Owen and we bumped into Tabatha. I was worried we were going so fast that we would knock over Tabatha, thank goodness that didn't happen. We were all laughing.
Thanks Bambi and kids for the great time.
Thanks to Bambi I got some amazing memories of the time spent.
On Wednesday the kids I watch had a half day. They're always wanting to do something so a group of us took the kids over there. They all had a blast. Now everyday they ask if we can go back. What a great place to pinic, play and burn off a lot of energy.

I love you! It makes me so happy that you have so much fun over there. I was just reading someone's blog on how they don't like being on Oki and I thought of you. You are such an example of how to have a good time and get out and do stuff. You rock!
