April 27~ American Village and Sunabe park/beach

*** Just a note technical issues loading pictures, will try again another day ***

On a whim we decided to go take the kids on the Ferris Wheel for a treat on Saturday. After we had our ride we played some games and noticed it was the Grand Opening for this place that had a Panda on it, trick art is what the sign said. For a small fortune we got to go in and experience the illusion 3d art, so fun. Recommend this place if your looking for something different and fun. (sign said children 4 -high school 400yen and highschool and older 700 yen....however I don't know if it was a special due to opening day but we paid 1,500 for two adults and one 4yr old and 2 year old..) At the end there is a cafe with treats and ice cream for sale...

After some fun in American Village we ventured over to Sunabe "dolphin" beach and park, near Kadena gate one. The tide was low and the kids were in brand new shoes so we didn't venture out into the beach area, little mucky.
  • 2 dolphin shaped playgrounds
  • Roller slide for children on the playground
  • Basketball court
  • Skate Park
  • Playing field
  • Beach
  • Vending machines
  • Bathrooms 
**the location pin is for Sunabe park/beach as most know how to get to American Village

Have fun adventuring out with your family and friends :)

Shi Sha Dog Park
Just want to add a few pictures of this park too as it is in walking distance and is great to join the two parks in your trip.. Just walk down the road between the tree house park and the parking lot, its about 2-5 minutes (depending on the children walking) it will be on your right. Its a large cement Dog with a few things to climb on and slide down and an area to kick around a ball.. there are also bathrooms here too.
