Coral reefs, beautiful beaches, pinapples, pigs ears and bitter knobbly vegetables…it can only mean Okinawa, a favourite winter holiday spot of Bu and Pu's. We are so enamoured of the place that Bu is even learning how to play the traditional instrument of Okinawa – a three-stringed snake skin banjo – and hopes to record Okinawan traditional folk songs in English when he discovers some latent talent. Watch this blog!!!

Meanwhile enjoy some images of Miyako, Taketomi and Iriomote islands – everybody should try being pulled by a cow across the sea at least once!
