Last Saturday the local offices got together and raced "dragon boats" in the nearby river.

We didn't win any of the races but we had a good time. We had eight oarsmen, someone on rudder and person in the front who kept the beat with a taiko drum.

This is the new ALT, Jessica, and her boyfriend Ken who came to visit her last week.

We had a barbecue after the race. The man waving in the picture above is Fukumoto sensei, my boss. Toward the end of the day there was a raffle and I won the second to last (and best) prize, a compact stereo system and speakers. The final prize was a mini freezer.

Are you on the boat, I think I see you in one of them. The river is pretty big. Mom
