Roadside Attraction


On an amazing ride up to Okinawa's Northern most point I happened across an odd scooter parked on the side of the road. As I passed it, just out of the corner of my eye I spotted its driver in his flower laden bicycle helmet milling about on the side of the road. However alas I was going to fast and had no time to take picture.
After an afternoon of snorkling amoung some of the oddest coral formations I have ever seen, I began ridding back home. Then up ahead in the distance I saw a swaying scooter. Much to my delight this odd collection of stuff and its driver had passed me while I was swiming.
Quickly I reached inside my motorcycle jacket, pulled out my camera and started shooting. Since I was in a bit of rush the quality is not pefect.
