Dontaku Port Festival,
Fukuoka-city, Fukuoka prefecture, Kyushu

from the local custom dating back to

called 'toka' or 'matsubayashi,'
during which the local people praised
the feudal lord on the occasion
of New Year. It is said that the upper
class people of Hakata walked
around the town on their way back from the
castle. The word
'Dontaku' comes from the Dutch word 'Zontag', meaning
holiday. The
festival was first referred to as 'Dontaku' in the Meiji
period (late
19th century) when the once-prohibited 'matsubayashi' was
revived.
Today it is celebrated as a citizens' festival and many people
from
in and outside Fukuoka city, including from overseas, get together

ZS8M/ZS1HF UPDATE:
April 14
* With the SA Agulhas arrived
<http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/shipposition.phtml?call=ZSAF>
at
Marion Island, the ZS8M website is also now in the public domain.
Although
very much under construction, it can be found here
<http://www.zs8m.com/>.
With limited internet access, it's
conceivable Pierre will update
when time permits.
March 19 from Pierre, ZS1HF/ZS8M
*
In true tradition, we have an idiot pirating my callsign -
ZS8M.
Shame on you! Please note: ZS8M will only be operational from
approx
15 May 2010. Before I get operational, I will notify you all
once
ready. Please do not entertain any idiot pirating my callsign
before I
make further announcements. My technical training is
progressing
well. The complete team gathers on Tuesday 23 March in Cape
Town to
start team training - fire fighting, first aid and cooking
etc.
March
14, 2010 [OPDX]
Pierre informs that he is currently still very
busy with some technical
and team training. Training includes
maintenance on the Wx equipment
and hydrogen generator, with team
training including fire fighting,
cooking and first aid. The ship
leaves Cape Town on April 8th, and he
will arrive on Marion Island
some 6 days later. The ship that take him
there will unload food and
cargo, and then leave 4 weeks later once the
scientists have
completed their work.
Once the ship and scientists leave, he will
be on the air. Pierre tells
that this is his first long voyage. He
has sailed before, but on some
of the SA Navy ships and usually on
much shorter trips. On Marion
Island, Pierre's job will be the
resident radio and electronics
technician for; HF, VHF, Wx station,
Hydrogen generator, IT LAN,
satellite system and all the other
smaller systems that use 12 or 220V.
He will be assisting the
engineers with technical support. Pierre
states, "One of the
engineers will be writing her exam on the
island, which will be a
first for the island."
