Bike Tour Cape Hedo to Uruma: Hello my name is Mt. Yonaha
Bike Tour Cape Hedo: The northeastern part of Okinawa is the most challenging, most rural part of Okinawa. The mt. Yonaha is sitting there happily welcoming cyclists that test its hills. The mountain is not so high, but it’s a never ending roller-coaster of hills all the way. Also restaurants were very rare and we had to carry enough emergency food just in case.
One night we would sleep next to a convenient store with the permission of the owner, who also treated us with snacks and sake.
Due to the typhoons, we checked into a motel, which was just a regular house run by a lady, and we had the whole house to ourselves. And I made curry and we had a feast to top it off with Asahi beers after. It was always nice to sleep on a bed after couple of nights in the tent.
Few people were protesting next to a marine base. Ironically I was wearing my Army PT shorts when I took this photo. Pedal away asap Dae.
The baby blue colors of Okinawan water is not all around the island. There were just some spots where we had to stop and take photos. The colors are only seen with just the right amount of sunlight at certain time of the day.
