Time for an Update - Summer Vacation

I have to admit, my rate of posting on Blogger lately certainly leaves a lot to be desired. So now it's time for me to start letting everybody know what has been happening in my world.

Summer holidays
- unfortunately I didn't make it to the Sumo in Nagoya this year but we did get an invite to eat Chanko Nabe at a local Sumo stable - it was great.
- the trip to Vietnam and Cambodia was great but "bloody" tiring. We were lucky to travel with some wonderful people in both countries and I must admit it was great to talk to some native English speakers other than Mel.
- when we got back from out trip we went to a small Bon Odori (Bon dance) in Inuyama. It was a good night and I have been invited to do some taiko (Japanese drumming) training for the Bon Odori next year.
- we also went with friends to the Gujo Hachiman Bon odori. The Gujo Bon Odori is one of the biggest traditional dance festivals in Japan.
- other than that I put a bit of time into my fitness blog.
- so all in all it was a huge summer vacation.

That will do for now, and I will be uploading some photos soon.
