A few days ago, I almost fainted and went to hospital for a thorough check-up. They didn't find anything and sent me home. I figured it's probably due to too much hard work and time for some relaxation. Looking at the map, most places around Thailand where I live have been visited in the last few years. A news report that a China Airlines airplane had an emergency landing at Naha Airport reminded me of this part of Japan. Seeing the ancient Ryukyu kingdom has always fascinated me. Decision was made.
