Uncle Roger and Grandma Daoust

Paul here, I found this photo of Uncle Roger with Grandma Daoust. Not sure when this was taken. Anyone know ?

Trip to Okinawa

Just returned from our trip to Okinawa to visit Jackie, Tim and the grand kids.



We left Raleigh December 19th, 2008 and spent the entire time with them in Okinawa the first week and at a condo we rented in Ishikawa for the second week.



The trip over was routine although at our first stop in Chicago there had been snow the night before so we could have had delays that would affect the rest of our connections. The flight from Chicago to Tokyo took us via the circle route just north of Anchorage, Alaska at 61 deg. 38 min. North.


When we left Chicago it was in the afternoon and as we flew west the sunset chased us all the way to Tokyo where it set shortly after our arrival. The final leg of our trip took us on a 2 1/2 hour flight to Naha, Okinawa. We arrived around 9:30 PM local time after 22 hours of flying.


The first picture is us arriving taken by Chas waiting on the other side of security. The second picture is the long shadows of light taken at Anchorage, AK about half way thought our flight from Chicago to Tokyo.

More later ...
