Day one of the Dragon Boat Races was a blast, as usual. I am tired, sunburned and sore and will be heading to bed soon. We race in two races tomorrow. If I can still move after today.
This will be picture heavy and short and sweet on words. I am exhausted.

I love to go around and check out the other team's names. Some of them are funny.
This was written on on of the other team's boards. Funny.

Poor little guy was worn out. His mom pulled him into the shade after this
Women's team, second race
As you can see, I am rocking a pretty good sunburn on my face by the end of the day.
Must reapply sunscreen more regularly tomorrow!
Men's team race two
Look! They aren't in last place! :)
Kind of blurry but they are still ahead! They placed 4th out of 7 teams and we were thrilled. We don't usually do better than 5th or 6th. Not bad for a team that only practices for 11 weeks out of the year!

The clouds were awesome in the afternoon.
The future paddlers playing on the beach. They can hardly wait to turn 8 so they can paddle with us.
Little paddlers cheering us on. So cute.
That's it for now. I'm hitting the sack.
