(Once you get out of Naha and into the north, it gets really
beautiful. Naha itself is fairly indistinguishable from
any other urban area in Japan except for the weather and
large numbers of US military aircraft passing this way and
that. If you visit, I recommend driving north by Motobu
and beyond into Kunigami and Oku)

I thought Naha was down by Mexico. ;-)

No, Naha is about five miles north of the north end of the road system
here on Revillagigedo Island. If you take a boat to the float pier at
the mouth of the river and hike upstream a ways it's a good place to
look for black bears during the pink salmon run.

Naha is the provincial capital of Okinawa, toward the south end of the island.
The other major city is Nago, about half-way up on the west.

I think most people picked up on that, Joe..
Clearly Greg and Tod were being facetious with their suggestions
(Baja and Nai-Nai respectively) and I was talking about a very
different Naha on a very different island..

Thanks.
I need a way, though, to put a longer lens on my digital camera
for better wildlife pictures. Even in salmon season, when they're
pretty much uninterested in anything else, I'm still only willing
to get so close to the bears.. :-)

We were wandering around the WCC computer department looking for a professor
of C programming and were fantastically lucky to run into Glenda, who told
us where to find professor ratings and said not to take the second course
without taking the first one first. Somehow her advice rated more highly than
the same advice from me.

I would be curious where to find the instructor ratings.
