Papa Roo's Pacific Adventure

It has been quite the busy summer for our family.  We all went to TX to close on our property in May.  The kids and I went back to TX for a couple of weeks in July to help our family during fireworks season.  We arrived home on a Saturday evening and I took Papa Roo to the airport at 7 am the next morning.  He was gone for two weeks traveling all over the Pacific region for the Air Force.  During his travels he was able to see and do some very cool things.  I won't bore you with details but I will share some of the awesome pictures he took.

DO NOT retrieve your golf ball!
Our dear sweet neighbors in Okinawa
All the kiddos
The restaurant owners!
What a special bond our family has with our friends in Okinawa. Papa Roo contacted them via email about his trip.  They in turn put together a dinner at a friend's restaurant for a long awaited reunion.  They had the entire restaurant to themselves.   The only thing missing was the kids and I.  We did get to face time with them, which was very, very cool!
