The Japanese school had a field day today. We borrowed the field of a middle school on a hill, and it was really foggy in the morning. This is a beginning ceremony.


Tug of war. 200 students on one side and another 200 on the other.


"Japanese" field day of this sort is a first experience for our family. I worked hard on the lunch box, since it is customary in Japan to have this kind of lunch for this kind of occasion.

We had sun by late morning as usual, and we had lunch under the California sun. It was very hot!!! Next year, we will make sure to bring a beach parasol.
