Footy in Tokyo
We set off Saturday night, we had a private bus with two drivers. The trip was very arduous, however, after 2 am I slept pretty well. We got to the ground at about 10 after getting lost a few times. I was a bit flat because I didn't eat any breakfast-the first quarter of the game was tough, luckily Genki brought some chocolate so I ate that and played much better.
As for the game- it was close in the first two quarters, due more to us not playing very well. In the second half we put the foot down, using the ball nicely, doing some nice plays, with good running and teamwork we blew the margin out to 49 points at the final siren- 99 to 50.
The opposition organised beer and onigiri afterwards.
Unfortunately the beers were two of the worst in the world- VB and Fosters. We were able to watch the first quarter of the game that came after us but then we had to get back on the bus for the return journey. At least that time we had beer.Outside Tokyo there are some really beautiful mountain ranges which were nice to see, we also drove past Mt. Fuji, the top was clouded over but we got a beautiful view of the bottom. In the end the return trip turned out to be worse, we left at 3 pm so I couldn't even sleep and i thought I was going to die a few times, I'm pretty sure the driver was going a tad over the speed limit, and a few of us got airbourne as he tried to make it back in time. Geez I was sore when we got back at 10.30 and glad to be home.
