Must be part of the C2 thing as now Brent has the Ds and Vs, so Shaun is very keen to paddle and has gone to the river hoping to score a C1 or K1 from someone. I am keeping an eye on Brent but I think he is over the worst. Being very vigilant on the personal hygiene and making paddlers drink Coke after each session to give their gut a good cleanse. Hope we can contain it. On a more positive note, the sun has decided to shine this arvo and the team is doing a fun aerobic paddle session so should come back to our little hotel in good spirits.
There are boxes of fresh apricots, cherries and watermelon on the side of the road a few kilometres away so just thinking about springing into a bit of exercise and doing a bit of food gathering. Finished the one and only book yesterday, been too busy to knit my peggy squares that I bought with me, but have started teaching myself how to use the Adobe Pemier movie making programme I bought to make a team movie, so plenty to keep occupied with in the down times. The team watches movies on Brents laptop and have done a tiny bit of homework. There really isnt alot of down time as the days are pretty full of training and eating. Will head into Ceske B city centre after dinner tonight so the kids can send emails home if we can find a good internet cafe. My phone still not working here so if anyone needs to contact us urgently then use the emails or from the contact list of our accommodation.
Back to Prague tommorrow after a morning training session then a practice at Veltrusy from 5 to 7pm . Veltrusy is about half an hour north of Prague, so will stay in Prague for the racing there.
Cheers
for now
