みなさんこんにちは、美樹のブログです。
みなさんは日本の南西にある県、沖縄を知っていますか?
沖縄は日本一のビーチリゾートで、国内旅行の場所としていつも人気が高いです。
沖縄はその他の日本のどの地域とも違う、独特な雰囲気を持っています。今から約570年前の1429年から約450年間、沖縄は琉球王国として独立した国だったからです。琉球王国の時代の独特な文化に加え、中国を始めとするアジアの国と近いことや、アメリカに統治された歴史を持つことなどにより様々な国の影響を受けています。そんな沖縄に私は先日行ってきました。沖縄はいくつかの島からなっています。その中でも一番大きい本島を、今回はレンタカーでまわりました。世界遺産である首里城や世界一大きなアクリルパネルを使った水族館など、沖縄には観光するところがたくさんあります。
沖縄のおいしいものが食べたくて、市場へ行きました。そこにはさっき水族館で泳いでいた熱帯魚のようなカラフルな魚が売られていました。その中でも、まるで絵の具で真っ青に塗ったような魚は残念ながら私の食欲をそそりませんでした。青い食べ物をあまり見た事がないからだと思います。
その他に、たくさんの豚肉が売られていました。沖縄では豚の足や豚の耳も食べる習慣があります。コラーゲンがたっぷりでお肌にいいんですよ!豚の顔の皮も売っていましたが、これは日常的には食べないそうです。
市場で買った魚は、市場の二階にある食堂ですぐに料理してもらえます。魚は新鮮でとってもおいしいです。市場へ行くと、地元の食生活を知る事ができて面白いですね!
みなさんの家の近くには市場はありますか?そこにはその土地らしいものはありますか?
それでは、また来週!

沖縄に行きたいですよね!!!友人は日本語の方言の専門家で、最近宮古島の方言を勉強しています。2月から5月まで宮古島に泊まっています。ミクシィで写真を出して宮古島と沖縄はすごそうですよ!
日曜日にはよく市場に行くことがあります。コンビニより高くなくて、果物は新鮮で、いつもにぎやかです。パリには名物がありませんが海外の料理をたべてみたかったら最高なところですよ!

Construction of the Okinawa aquarium was highlighted last week on American public television. Construction of the huge clear window and the care of a huge variety of fish was extremely interesting. Please investigate via the internet.

Here is a great Japanese site about the aquarium:

沖縄はかなり面白そうですね!先日、沖縄の写真を見て、海の景色がすばらしかったです。

わたしは、美樹さんの市場で食べたご飯について読んだら、すぐに食べたくなりました!!!
わたしも魚が大好きですが、住んでいる地域では魚がすごく高いし、とても新鮮な魚を見つけるのはときどき難しいです。
