JSKA Karate World Championship in Cancun - Album I

So we're half-way through the World Championship week and the actual tournament starts tomorrow. Today, I wanted to share a few of the pictures from this trip so far (hence, Album I). :)

First off, the resorts we're staying at where the World Championship 2012 is taking place - Iberostar Cancun, Golf & Spa Resort:



This is the view from our balcony

Here's the same view at sunset:

Here's our team (minus one member). Hubby is the team's coach and the President of the organization in the Pan-Americas:

Another pic of the team, now minus the hubby but plus the member of the team who wasn't in the last pic :)

We had a great three hour training this morning with all the members of various teams. The first part of the seminar was with Abe Sensei, the head of our organization from Japan, and Nagaki Sensei, one of his senior students. Then we trained with other senior Senseis (teachers), including my hubby, Sensei Thomas Casale. Here are a few pics from that training.

Well, that's it for Album I. Album II coming in a few days and will include the tournament pictures.

Cancun - Karate World Championship - possible blog schedule changes

 I'm going to be away for two weeks in the sunny Cancun, Mexico at a World Karate Championship.

Hope to have wireless there - and if that's the case, I will keep posting.
