More puzzles and Zootopia

I've been cranking out 1000 piece puzzles it seems.  Here are my recent completions:

This one is shiny and very pretty

I found a very difficult 1000 piece puzzle and have started it.  It will keep me occupied for quite some time!


We went and saw Zootopia as a family.  What a great movie!

Manta Park & Thrift Store

A fun thing to do on Okinawa is to go to the park and play on the roller slide(s).  We haven't been to one yet as each time we go the weather caves in.  Today was a gorgeous day and we stopped by Manta Park when we were out and about.  Sadly, the roller slide was closed.  I'm not sure why it was closed but it was very disappointing to find it like that.  We will try another park another day.

We went and checked out a thrift store.  Thrift stores are not very common and there are only a few on the island.  It was a very interesting walk through the store.  They sell the normal thrift store items: clothes, shoes, household items, toys, books, etc.  They also sell expensive figurines and vintage American items.  Our favorite section was the musical instrument section.  Caleb showed strong interest in a violin...I am going to try and find a teacher for him.  If I can find one then we will buy him the violin and he can start his lessons.  I didn't take a picture but there was a mini trumpet that looked amazing, an electronic clarinet, and an interesting looking keyboard/stringed instrument I've never seen before. 

They have the most interesting items when you go into stores.  This dinosaur met us when we were walking down the stairs from the parking on the 2nd floor. 

We also went to another Aeon Mall and bought gifts for family.  All malls have an arcade...something Caleb is learning to remember.  We stopped at the arcade and played a bit.  There were rows of claw machines...a big hit here.  You have toys, electronics, food, etc. to choose from.  I found one that was hilarious; a big stack of potato chips.  The arcade also has a lot of adult casino machines.  And of course, Caleb's favorite fighting arcade games.  And we found a Caleb look-alike when we were in the mall.
