Summer Vacation


This summer vacation was very good. I went on a training camp with my club members from August 21 to 24. I went to Yudanaka in Nagano. This place is famous for hot spring. It took 4 hours to go there. First day, we played tennis, but it took 1 hour to go tennis court. When we arrived at tennis court, we were very tired. We started to play tennis from 2:00 p.m. The weather of first day was rainy. We practiced only an hour and a half. It was very sad. Our club chairman judged that we couldn’t play tennis because of rain. We returned to the hotel. I soaked soon. After that we had a barbecue. There were many beefs and vegetables. They were delicious, and we were happy. So we couldn’t play tennis such a long time, but we had a good time.

Second day, we went to tennis court to play tennis. Second day was great weather and very hot. Because we couldn’t play tennis in first day, we moved up schedule. So we started to do the games without following the procedure. The game was very exciting. This day I didn’t lose in the any games, so I was very happy. I think I contributed to my team. In the evening, today’s supper was curry and rice. But I had little appetite because I was exhausted by the games.

Third day was rainy and very cold. The temperature went down 16 degrees. We couldn’t stay at tennis court such a long time because we wore a T-shirt and knee trousers. But the weather became cloudy from afternoon. So we drained off on courts. It takes about one hour, so we were very tired. After that we resumed play, and we played tennis until 5:00 p.m. After that we returned to the hotel, and we began a drinking party. Everyone drank the alcoholic drink and got drunk. I also drank it. We enjoyed party, and most people didn’t sleep.

In last day, we couldn’t play tennis because we had drunk alcoholic drink one day before. I felt nausea. We prepared bags to return home town. We returned our home town after lunch. I think we had a good time in this training camp now, and I hope to go to the camp again.
