Penang - Dragon Boats




Going round the corner - not an easy task for a dragon boat, they don't bend.














The team in full flight














In the marshalling yards before the last race.











Competitors between races - this is the Japanese team. The character on the back of their uniforms is very sylised version of "dragon".











Unloading and loading the boats - this is why regattas usually run late. This one was no different.










The team in our tent, getting riding instructions for the next race.













Real spectators.
