Nobu’s Weblog

This year I also joined Mad Paddlers and we paddled from March to November. Every Wednesday evening we trained in Pak Sha Wan and every Sunday morning close to Sai Kung pier.
This is my second year for dragon boating. The first year was very tired and I was concentrating to coordinate my arms, legs, back and neck properly. At that time I also fight against fear of sharks…. So I could not enjoy view although I thought it should be beautiful.
This year my body got used to the movements, so it was a little bit easier. But still I need to concentrate.
Well, during one training session at the evening, I saw following great view:

A moon rise. I have never seen a moon rise before! Did you? Actually I did not even know that the moon is also rising! The moon was round (fullmoon) and it was shining in  orange! Oh no… the moon was burning! It looks like this moon came out of the water, hided between mountains before slowing going up to the dark night sky. The moon looked so handsome, incredible beautiful!!! Have you seen such a moon rise before?
During our training the moon rise and spent us some light for our training on the sea. The moon rise made me so happy and I was able to win new power for our tough training!
