“Hello! This is Marlene Clemente, the woman who was visiting her son in Okinawa with her younger son at Christmas time.
I put on my Jet T-Shirt the other day and it had me reminiscing of Oki so I went to your website and found the pic you took in the bar of my son and I. What a nice picture…
It was entertaining to watch my son excited to take me to this really cool bar called the Jet – knowing that I would like it – and then watching his shocked surprise finding out that old mom had already been there and done that scene many years before. It was also very entertaining to watch my younger son learn just how outstanding Oki-rock is! He was very surprised. When young people experience a culture so different from their own at an impressionable age, it changes their attitude for the better and leaves a lasting impression. I am glad that our trip to Okinawa was able to do that for him…
Thanks again for the fun at the Jet! It brought me back to a more youthful time and many Okinawa memories came flooding back. It also made me realize how lucky I am to be older, watching the young people act like their parents never taught them manners, lol! â€

Hi Marlene,
Yes, I remember the night you and your son sat at the counter and we had a few moments to reminisce about years gone by. We’re glad you and your son had a great time on Okinawa and look forward to seeing you again when you get the chance.
Until that time take care and best of luck to all of you with all of your endeavors.
