Amami

We spent a short day in Amami O Shima. It is one of over 160 islands in the chain than extends down to Okinawa in the south. About 48 are settled.
It was small and we didn't have much time to get out of Naze the main city.
It is a centre of silk production and pottery.
A few photos:


                                               Kimono made from local silk.

                                                   Some traditional handicrafts.


                                                 Checking out the shoe shop.


                                                  Photo from our cabin balcony.


                                          A large group of drummers played for us.
