Our junior youth team will be traveling to Brazil to participate in the 20th Brazil-Japan Friendship Cup.
After a journey of about 10 hours from Narita, we arrived in Dubai. During the transit, everyone made good use of their time, walking around the airport to stretch their stiff bodies and writing in their travel guides.
After another approximately 14-hour flight from Dubai, we arrived in Rio de Janeiro. The weather is cool and pleasant.
After arriving at the hotel, each team walked about 5 minutes to the beach, where they ran and played with a ball on the sand, energetically working up a sweat without showing any signs of fatigue from the long journey.
Afterwards, we had dinner, and each team held a meeting before calling it a night.
Tomorrow, we have the opening ceremony of the Brazil-Japan Friendship Cup 2017, training, and watching matches.
