SAN * NI * ICHI * GO.....
Tonight we went out to the Tug of War, it was out Gate 2, the weather couldn't have been any better! They allowed the kids to take the first challenge of the war, both American and Japanese took part in it, and Hayleigh was so excited to take her turn to give that rope a tug. After the kids took a turn it was time for the adults, I thought what the heck I will give it a try, WOW that was not an easy task to try and move that GYNORMOUS rope anywhere but the side I was on did win!!! YEH!! After the war they cut down the rope and pass it out for everyone to take a souvenir and I think that it will be one of my favorite ones to say that we were here in 2008 and we did the "OKI TUG-O-WAR"!!
Hope you enjoy the pics!
