OPENING CEREMONIES

The team gathered in the main square of Krakow to officially open the 2016 U23/Junior World Championships with 47 other nations.  It was a scorching 35 degrees so team shorts and white tops and water were on order.  Official speeches were giving by the ICF dignitaries followed by local cultural and modern dancing.  











We had a delicious team dinner at Kogel Mogel partaking in many local specialities:  Boczniaki podsmazane (oyster mushrooms), Pate z resiny (Goose pate), Tradycyjny choldnik litewkie lub chlodnik z ogorka i miety (Traditional cooler soup made of beetroot, cucumber and egg), Pierogi’s (dumplings), Kaczka marynowana (roast duck), Nozka z gesi (roasted leg of goose), Kopytka z maselkiem (potato noodles with butter), and much more …..
