After three years in Japan, I'm finally going to a sumo match. And we're going in style. Our friends, the Andohs, have a box courtesy of Takashimaya, where Atsunori works. Elizabeth proimises us that we'll be fed until we're stuffed! "Come hungry and bring a backpack for the food to take home," she advised.
As for the sport itself, I know only the fundamentals. I expect I'll learn more today. During this tourney, Takanohana has remained completely unbeaten and Chiyotaikai has only one loss. With five days remaining, either of them could come out the winner. It should be a fun and exciting day.
