Naha Dragonboat Races 2011 Okinawa, Japan (Photo)

Here it is, a photo of the three Dragonboats lined up and preparing to race. It rained almost all day long but, the sun came out over Naha Okinawa, Japan for the last few races.

This photo was taken at 4:56PM 5 MAY 2011.  There are about 400 more I'll be developing later this week.

Standing in the rain all day, most of the time in deep puddles of water, caused one of my hiking shoes to fall apart.  So, I'm headed home now to get comfortable.  A hot shower, food and sleep are my plan for the rest of the day. I'll be back in the morning wearing my flip-flops and dry clothes and in a much better frame of mind. More photos and stories about the Dragonboat races will be coming your way in the near future.
