WoooooHoooooooo......beach party

- Never Stop Dreaming -

Ok here`s the thing...went out on a road trip with the guys from Samurai and Kuroshi shi (黒獅子) in Saku city. The owner Yuuri ( I tink so...) is totally awesome...he`s elder hook us up a bus and like a whole bunh of staffs from the two restaurants were headed to a beach in Niigata Prefecture. Along came 2 other English teachers from GEOS...and there we were, 2 americans, Ashley and Shane, me and like a 3 other hot girls and a whole bunchs of really cool guys waiting outside Kuroshishi like 3am Sunday morning for the bus. The road trip took like 3 hours and along the way, I caught the awesome sunrise at 4.30am.

When we reached the beach, some YAKUZAs and hell I mean big time Yakuzas that`s like way above the Yamaguchi Group pulled up in a convoy of black radical vans, full tinted windows, complete with flags and banners and approx 20" speakers on the top of the van. 2 white GMCs vans escorted the convoy with a white Japanese limo in the middle. I wanted to snap some shots with my trusted EOS Kiss Digital X but was disuaded by my Japanese friends. Well they were saying it`s better not to even look at them if you want to keep your life...way too cool.

And so we headed to the beach in the scorching 40 degress sun with absolutely no one else on the beach except us. The beach is superbly clean with dark brown sand...and it`s a totally nice experience...cos there is this little hut with tatami mats which people kinda chill in them and eat ramens, yakitoris, beers and a hell lot of other food.

Yup with this new toy in my hand, i took a lot of pictures....like I am learning from Shane, who uses a EOS 30D and he says...take like 30 pictures and you`d find at least 1 picture worth printing. So he and me were just there literally shooting away in a succession of quick clicks fom the shutters.

Will try to edit the pics soon and post them here so chill and keep those comments coming in...
