Rehashing my visit to
Kakinohana Hija Spring, I ran across this photo of a table with the one of the greatest views of the Pacific Ocean located at a small park, of sorts, as there's not much for kids to do there. This area can only be seen if you take the straight parking route in (
pinned above), and, it's the first thing you see to your right when you make the turn in that strays off to the left and downhill towards the spring.

Looking back on that day, it wasn't best to chance it by picnicking at Nakandakarinoson Park (pinned below) as it could've poured rain at any moment, despite what the skies tell you in the picture above; if you've been in Okinawa long enough, you can feel (and sometimes "smell") the rain coming. Sure enough, if I recollect correctly, there was some rain—although not enough to ruin a picnic, you never know in Okinawa. So, it was better to be safe than sorry by leaving with soaking wet clothes and the kids getting sick the next day.
Next time that we venture southeast to Nanjo when we want to get away from it all again (
@Marron included), we'll just have to stop by here. Surely though, this would have to be before summer hits when the sun is bearing down on us too strong to handle it for too long.
After our lunch, we'll be able to hit up the spring, cool down in its waters and relax outdoors a bit as this is quite a tranquil place to visit.
This also gives us a bit of social distancing in the wake of what's going on today with COVID-19 as it's fairly secluded with not many visitors on any given day.
