Junior Olympics Clovis

Richard made it to the summer Junior Olympics in Clovis! It is HOT! Each day was well over 100 degrees. To top it all off, our AC in the car started to malfunction. Luckily, people brought mist fants to the tents which made it more tolerable.

Richard placed 5th in the 50 meter breast! He also placed 6th in the 100 meter breast! His freestyle 200 meter relay team came in 2nd. Congratulations to your great achievements. We are so very proud of you!

The most amazing thing is that he dropped time for every event!

We ate at a ramen restaurant because it is William’s favorite food. The restaurant owner apparently loves anime.

We found a dim sum restaurant that wasn’t bad. We ate there twice even.

On the last day, we had Pho. This restaurant has a robot which brings the food and drinks to your table!
