dragon boat race and monet
today we had an very exciting day... dragon boat race!
the weather condition was good and there was no big wave, so it was supposed to be much easier than last year. and yes, we did have a very smooth run, with the head of our boat crashing to the nearby boat in the next lane..... as a result, unfortunaltely, we were disqualified for the race. too bad!! i think we were just too excited and spirited that the each push of the paddles didnt come together as one. hope we can do better next year!
after that i took some friends from the group to see an exhibition in yokohama museum. as far as i remember this was the 1st time i ever saw monet paintings . i thought i always hated impressionist paintings because i just dont see any meanings in any of those landscape paintings. but wow, the real things are so different! i was almost stunned as if id seen a magic. it was just like looking directly into someones mind, whoseowner was pondering in front of a lotus pond.
hmm....

one day, we will do the dragon boat race and see more paintings together. BTW, i saw many impressionist painting already, including Monet, but i still prefer Medieval and German Expressionist more, hehe.
