九州へ

On Saturday, I will be going with my family down to Kyushu for a short 4-day vacation. We'll spend some time in Kagoshima and Kumamoto. My oldest son, Kenji, plays professional basketball for the Kumamoto Volters team in the National Basketball League. So on Sunday, we'll go to see Kenji's game. Recently he has been getting more and more playing time, so finally he has had a chance to show his true ability.

Of course, if you hear the name "Kumamoto," I guess you quickly imagine two things: Kumamon and 馬刺. We are big fans of both. We've already made dinner reservations for a "horse feast" on Sunday night. I can't wait.

I'll post some photos of our trip after we get back. I hope you all also enjoy your own weekend. Possibly with cherry blossom viewing. . .??
