With Translator: Mariko Komatsu
We tried out the Hansa about 4 years ago. Mao appeared to have a lot of fun. I had not sailed ever before, so now we sail together.
Mao looks very happy when sailing.
Mao loves sailing. She has lots more fun when the wind is up and the waves are rough. She loves getting splashed by the waves. I also like going fast.
Mao is in the boat with me. To me it means a lot when we get good results. When I am happy about the results, Mao feels that happiness too.
In para sailing Mao is not eligible to compete.
Inclusion means to us that everyone is welcome. That is my understanding. I am grateful that there is an occasion like that where Mao can compete.
This is a big event and the first time we have spent so much time together. Us together, keeping well for the whole event, will be very special. It is unusual for a Japanese worker to have such a long holiday from work like I am now.
Mao would like to bring her classmates to sail. There are still many people at her school who would like to come but there is still some hesitation there to try.
We are telling many people about this event. We are happy to share on Facebook.
