Tour Diary - Day 5: Training & Shopping at Canal City


Day 5 - 4th December

 

Day 5 of the tour presented a fairly relaxing day for the squad after a convincing 35-5 victory over Fukuoka High School.  We began the day with a light training session to recover our battered and bruised bodies from the intensely wet weather which encompassed a solid weights session followed by a light run and stretch.  After the session, the footage of the game was reviewed by the squad, with some key elements of the match identified for improvement.  By far the most entertaining and enjoyable part of the day was next on our agenda with our shopping trip to Canal City shopping town.  We all split up in groups of 3 or 4 to roam the shopping centre to see what Japan's shopping culture had to offer.  We were not disappointed.  The majority of us made some valuable purchases, namely Harry McLennan and Jamil Haddad purchasing the brand new ASICS Kayano shoes. After our afternoon at Canal City, we caught the bus back to Higashi Fukuoka and assembled there in readiness to be picked up and spend our last night in Fukuoka enjoying the warm and generous hospitality of our billets. All up another fantastic day on tour.
