DieselFish’s trip to Portland was an adventure that we’ll never forget. Read
on to learn more. (30 SECOND READ) <<<
DieselFish recently
travelled to Portland to compete in the Rose Festival Dragon Boat Race. We had
a blast racing, making new friends, and exploring the city.
We felt POWERFUL as we surged down the Willamette River. The festival uses Taiwan-style boats, which are MASSIVE compared to the slim Hong Kong-style boats we usually race. It took every ounce of strength, every desperate gasp of air, every powerful stroke to pull our boat down the racecourse. The experience left us feeling drained yet also strong and fast.
We felt
LOVED as we made new friends. Our coaches invited guests from other teams to
race with us. Together, we shared laughter, stories, and the joy of
competition. Racing and hanging out with them created bonds that we’ll cherish
forever.
We felt
JOY as we explored the vibrant city of Portland together. We devoured delicious
meals at famous restaurants, clinked glasses in celebration, and even conquered
an escape room challenge together. Every moment was filled with fun and
discovery.
Our trip to
Portland was an unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to go back!
