Re: Orion
ReplyDeleteIn fact, the first part of the title of the song, "Oji jiman," means "Old man's pride."
Dave,
ReplyDeleteI would like to see white corals undaer the sea. Kerama Islands is famous for white corals.
Anyway, these are beautiful pictures about Zamami. Good job!! I love you.
Anonymous, I love you, too. I would also like to have pictures of the coral under the sea. Unfortunately my camera gets sick when I put it underwater. Until I find a cure for the saltwater, we'll have to settle for land-based pictures. Do you have any 'above-the-sea' requests?
ReplyDeleteTo Dave,
ReplyDeleteAll right. But when you have a chance, please show us beautiful white corals under the sea. I'm really interested in white corals in Okinawa.
By the way, I like your big smile holding an Orion beer. Your mustache is saikou and you are soooo cute!!! I was almost fall in love with you.
I will do my best to get some white coral.. if you have a picture of what you have in mind that would be great! (because all I am thinking of is bleached/dead coral.)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like the picture of the guy holding the Orion. I will tell him you said so. Unfortunately that's not me.
For what it's worth, Anonymous, I know Dave in real life and he's a handsome guy.
ReplyDeleteWaaay more handsome than the guy with the Orion beer...
ReplyDeleteboth! both!!
