Today was our last day in Ceske B , it was hot and sunny and the team had two really good sessions. First up a techie session on the bottom half of the course, then wave surfing and then jumping into the wave with our Czech friend Daniel. We came back to the great news that Luuka had qualified a top 15 nation spot so fingers crossed the NZOC will send her to the Olympics.
The afternoon session was a progressional course in 3 parts and Lou and I took times. Team all very happy and Ceske B was a great way to break into the Europe tour. Vlada from Galasport was also staying at the river witrh the junior group he coaches so he gave some feedback and lots of encouragement too. Nikki and Ella decided to run back as tommorrow a rest day. Lou and I had walked from the hotel along the river to the course earlier so the girls ran the same route.
We met Daniel at a Czech restaurant and all had a fun night learning about growing up post communism and getting a local perspective . It was great as always the fun times when travelling are meeting locals. Daniel and his friend Miroslav both commentate the World Cups in Prague and will be at junior worlds so will catch up with them again then.

Hi guys, good to see you are all well and training hard. I had the wrong blog address thats why I couldnt find it!! Weather over there looks amazing, think of us all here in the cold. New boats look good - enjoy paddling them.

Hi team. You're all looking like you're having heaps of fun. The new boats look great and I love Bridey's racing stripe. Bridey and Ella, stop sitting so close to Daniel! Enjoy your day off today.
