A Day at the Races

The dragon boat races, that is!

Today I spent a number of hours getting to know some of my co-workers better, eating great food and, of course, paddling a dragon boat at the Lake Superior Dragon Boat Festival. Here are the pictures:

Lining up to start the race. Our boat was the one to the far right (little boats, haha).

Racing.
Winning! We placed first in our first race of the day and finished a boat-length in front of the other teams. Time: 2 minutes, 4 seconds.
Post-win cheering

Waving to the girls after our win.

Liv learned about getting the husk off the corn as we were preparing for lunch.

So did Katie. She had a good time learning how to shuck.


Even though we took first in our first race and third (2 minutes, 7 seconds) in our second, our finishing times weren't good enough to get us into the medal races. Either way, I had a great time and plan on doing it again next year. It brought back a lot of good Ultimate memories and feelings, too.
