Miyako Diaries 8: Sugar Cane Whispers

Total deaths counted 200,000, Japanese and Allied, and 120,000 of them were...

Miyako Diaries 7: Intermission
Despite the Mai-bama being such a long stretch of a beach, it's surprising that there is only one beach hut in the area - the one and only Windy Mai-bama, serving tapas, beverages, and of course Miyako noodles throughout the summer months. Its weathered outer walls and the orange slated roof are...

Miyako Diaries 4: The Road Guardian
Aya stands beside a Miyako Mamoru-kun, "Miyako Guardian," that stands watch in front of the Tourist Center, downtown Hirara (if you want to call it a downtown). Mamoru-kun is one of twenty or so police officer dummies that are placed throughout the Island to promote road safety. To the amuse...

Miyako Diaries 2: Yonaha Mai-bama Beach
The path opened its way onto the beach. Stepping off the turf and onto the sand, Chihaya was amused by how the finely ground sand slipped up through her toes, like remnants of the summer before she has now come back to retrieve. In front of her were the sparkling green waves of South China Sea, actu...
