Summer has finally arrived. The days are longer and warmer, so I can spend more time outside with my DieselFish friends. My heart skips a beat whenever I think about the adventures we’re going to have together. Here’s a list of some of the stuff I’m most excited about:

RACING IN MONTRÉAL AND LOS ANGELES

Summer is prime dragon boat season. There are races every weekend all over the world. We always include away races in our schedule. Because away races are mini vacations. We paddle during the day and explore the cities at night. This summer’s offerings are especially exciting. Many of us are going to race in Montréal and Los Angeles. The competitions will be fast and furious. After the races, we’ll hopefully check out Old Montréal and Disneyland.

PADDLING AFTER WORK ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS

The summer sun stays up forever, allowing us to practice in the evening. Fresh air, exercise, and gorgeous sunsets—there is no better way to unwind after a grueling day at the office.

LUNCHES WITH THE TEAM

When the weather is warm, we grab lunch after practice. Some of our favorite spots in Redwood City and San Carlos offer outdoor seating that allows us to enjoy fresh air and sunshine as we chow down and chat. I’m looking forward to savoring the halloumi cheese rolls at Mazra and the chicken tikka thali at Zareen’s. The curries at Isarn Garden Thai Cuisine are delicious, too.

→ Our summer is going to be awesome, filled with sunshine, fun, and excitement. Would you like to join our adventures? DM or email me now at DFcaptains@gmail.com to book a FREE dragon boat lesson in Redwood City.
