  1. Amazing work as usual, Greg. That part about Okinawa being a rare place in Japan that isn’t ‘ruled by the clock’ really rang true. I especially noticed that feeling of a different relationship with time in the Yaeyama Islands. On Ishigaki Island (my family’s favorite vacation spot) I remember being initially amused-annoyed by just how slow everyone drove — consistently under the speed limit. But then when I was back in my hometown in central Japan I felt myself lamenting the increase in speed of traffic…and life.
