Daddy arrives

You'll have to excuse my amateur video shooting abilities.......and watch this video sideways. It was so fun to watch to kids spot Heath as he came out of the baggage claim at the airport. After 36 hours of flying Heath was holding up remarkably well. He spent his first day or two getting reacquainted with jet lag and enjoying things he was not able to have for the past 7 months IE. beer (Kuwait is a dry country). He says he is experiencing some unexpected "Culture Shock". He is surprised that there are dishes to do, someone else doesn't do your laundry and you have to pay for your meals verses scanning his ID as payment at the galley. Additionally, Okinawa looks very green, there are kids around all the time that are attached to his hip and he is used to sleeping in a bunk bed in open bay barracks.....On the plus side he says that the humidity in Okinawa is actually easier to tolerate than the average daily temperature of 120F in Arifjan. All in all the adjustment has been very smooth and he is enjoying being back home.
