We went down to Okinawa to visit Dan and Terri Gardner and to help them in renovating the second floor of their church. 
The morning glories and these other vine-like plants were growing all over everything.  |
| This orange gladiola grew by the roadside while on a walk around the Gardner's neighborhood. This color I don't have, yet. |
 |
| Henry preached the Wednesday night service at Shinko Baptist Church. It was live-streamed and recorded, with less than 10 people in person at the church. |
 |
| These walls will be repainted once the apartment area is finished. The Japanese pastor and his family will live upstairs here. There is a bathroom with a tub, three bedrooms, kitchen and living area, plus an office for Pastor. |
 |
| The ceiling was removed and the attic area will have flooring on it for storage. It goes the length of the building. |
This is a tree I passed on one of my walks--looks like more than one tree/vine have attached itself to it.  |
| The Seaside Baptist Church is in Nago, about an hour north of the other church. Last time I saw it, there was just the foundation laid and the lot to the left was vacant. Now a big machine company occupies it. There's a nice park nearby, plus some apartment buildings. |
This is a view from the opposite side of where the Gardners live. Their home is in front of that row of trees in the middle of the photo in front of those houses. 
Not far from the above is this elevated road. 
This is a different tree trunk with other things growing on it. 
These next photos are taken at the Naha airport the day we left on April 30th. Starbucks was closed. There were many beautiful orchids all over the place, We departed about 6:30 pm just in time for the sun to set over the Pacific Ocean.
