So far shuri castle and churaumi aquarium interests me. Hope there are many shopping streets for cheap souvenirs.

Cheap sashimi at the public market was the favourite part of okinawa. I don't really do much shopping but there's the shopping street. Don't expect it to be happening like Osaka or Tokyo la.

Quite nice to drive around the island, speed limit around 50kmh only. Easy drive. Most tourist spots parking also free and easy to find (maybe not summer holiday time). I wanna go back there next time for the other smaller islands and for diving. laugh.gif

I am thinking 2 days around that city area (use 2 days monorail pass) and rent car for 1 day. Hopefully Peach will start selling the flights earlier (with promo). Once the flight ticket in secured, then can start planning seriously biggrin.gif
