#100 - Eat solo

I ate at Jai Thai today solo without relying on my book that was in my bag! There were quite a few other solo eaters too. It was like a club!

#29 - Splurge on a new electronic toy

I bought a camera today! It's a Nikon Coolpix and I haven't tested it out at all yet, but am excited to do so! Yay! A new toy!

#100 - Eat solo

Today I ate at an Indian restaurant in Naha completely alone. And even though I had a crossword puzzle book, my camera, and my phone, I didn't bring any of them out in the course of my meal. Instead I just enjoyed my surroundings and my vegetable curry and garlic naan. And because I was looking up, the man in the kitchen kept waving at me and then came out to have a little chat. (He was old and just wanted to speak English. Don't freak.) It wasn't a terrible experience. I actually did the solo eating thing last week at a kaiten sushi place, but since I was the only customer being stared at by the sushi maker, I don't feel like I can count it even though I didn't use a book then either.

Four more meals.

#52 - Go snorkeling!

My #52 says that I have to go snorkeling three times. Check one of those times off the list.

Bridgit and I went snorkeling on Tokashiki Island in it's famous crystal clear waters. Although we had one faulty mask, we had a great time among the reefs where we found ourselves suddenly in the middle of a school of fish or face to face with one of those beautiful tropical fish(es) whose name you don't know. It was tiring (and I got a bit freaked out at first... which is why I also don't scuba dive), but it was amazing! Hopefully I can squeeze another day of snorkeling in while in Okinawa because snorkeling in Lake Michigan doesn't sound like much fun.
