This is not a post about Thailand, but a wonderful series of islands in southern Japan. I have been to these islands 2 or 3 times (lost count! ^o^). They are the "Hawaii" of Japan--beautiful beaches, sunny weather and wonderful food.

They are also popular for another pastime: diving! Some of my readers are avid divers, so I thought I would share a "hidden spot":
Miyako Island's "Pond Street" [下地島の通り池]

Since two big holidays are coming up in Thailand (Songkran -- April 10 ~ 16) and Japan (Golden Week -- April 29 ~ May 5), this might be the perfect vacation for some of my readers. I hope you will try and give me a report! ^_^
Emerging from the tunnel to the pond:
For my Japanese readers, here is the Wiki site:
こちだよ！ Happy diving!
**Bonus** Today marks April Fools Day around the world. Rather than play a trick on you, I hope you will enjoy
