Kobudo Day 3


What a strange and good day. It began with my daughter’s entrance ceremony for elementary school, a major event here in Japan. Continued with my private lesson with a Chinese student here in Japan. Then moved to kobudo practice for 3 ½ hours, the perfect finish. And cherry blossoms at every stop along the way, all in full bloom, expanded as far as they can go, and only one place to go…

So my kobudo revolution continues. Blasting ahead in every practice – yet each time being reminded of how little I know and how far I have to go.

See the poster for an upcoming tournament, probably the cause for my first and long-delayed trip to Okinawa…

Time for more beer and some late night cherry blossom viewing.
