We don't have a makiwara, so we use focus mitts for full-contact training.

"むちゃむちゃ (sweaty and sticky)"💦
The Okinawan sun and humidity have left me all sticky.🏝️🌡️ The asphalt is scorching — there's no way we can keep walking.🐾🚫 What a shame, but let's head back and cool down with some watermelon.🏠🍉😋

[RPeeco's Diving Adventure: Vol.3] Sway...🌊
Before I knew it, I was surrounded by a swarm of jellyfish.🪼✨ I need to stay calm.🧘‍♀️ To avoid touching them, I must move slowly, drifting with the current.🫧🤿

[RPeejar's Pier Fishing: 2/5] グイッ (Pull!)🎣💥
As the sun began to rise, the rod was suddenly yanked hard.🌅✨ The weight increased bit by bit, pulling deeper and deeper.⚓️🌊 The water's surface is swirling—I wonder what kind of fish is waiting below...🌀🐟❓

"あぎじゃびよい！ (be surprised)😲" A handstand?! With that massive head and those tiny arms, it shouldn't even be possible.💦 ...You know what?🤔 That cocky little face of yours is really starting to annoy me.😅

Today I dared to enter #Kouri #ShellMuseum.
I never in my life envisaged ever visiting a museum where ALL the billions of exhibits are sea shells (or a souvenir shop that sells only pumpkin flavored noventies).

At the park where we took shelter from the katabui🌧️🏠,
a rainbow (ぬーじ) appeared right on cue🌈✨. The pug finally seems calm again🐶😌. Maybe rain isn't so bad after all, especially when it gives us a view like this.🌦️💖#okinawa #animalart #illustration #bskyart

[Pug's Ocean Adventure: 5/5] woof-woof!😤
I never knew the underwater world was this beautiful!🪸🐠✨ Granted, with my flat face, I can't stay down here forever.🫧💨 Still, I'm probably the only pug in the world who can do this. Heh-heh.😤👑✨

[RPeejar's Pier Fishing: 1/5] チャポン (Plop)💧
Let's wait a while.⏳ The fish are gathering, but the ones we can see are just bait stealers, so I'll have to be careful.🎣⚠️ Pug, Doxie — stay put and look forward to the catch!🐶🐾🐟

I'm definitely not losing this game!🔥😤 After all, I've got a secret weapon...🤫💎 It's a body-slam, fueled by my perfectly round physique! Gufuu!💨🐾

[Pug's New Encounter: 3/5] Swish! 🌊✨
He seems friendly enough, so I'm relieved.😌🐾 This curious dolphin is swimming right alongside us!🐬💨 Maybe he just wants to play? I really hope so!🎾💙
