Try to picture 27 boats on the water at the same time... all practicing starts, turns, power series, all in different languages... that was the scene on the Dam this morning as most teams were out for pratice. It was amazing.
Our practice this morning went well. The heat is more bearable today, not sure if it's less hot or that we are getting used to it.
So we are under orders now to rest, stay out of the sun and make sure we drink a lot of water before this afternoon's practice... where better to do so than the internet cafe?
So hello from half way across the world - literally. (for anyone wondering, we are exactly 12 hours ahead of Toronto time).
Essayez de vous imaginer 27 bateaux sur l'eau en meme temps, chacun tentant de pratiquer leurs departs, leurs tournants de 2000m, leurs puissance et tout ca dans multiples langues...c'etait la scene sur le Dam ce matin. C'etait pas mal impressionant!
Notre pratique a tres bien ete. La chaleur est plus endurable aujourd'hui mais je ne sais pas si c'est parce qu'il fait moins chaud ou simplement qu'on s'y habitue.
Donc le mot d'ordre est pas de soleil, du repos et boire beaucoup d'eau avant la pratique de cet apres-midi... et quoi de mieux pour respecter les ordres que visiter le cafe internet local?
Donc bonjour de l'autre bout du monde - exactement. Nous sommes a 12 heures en avance de Montreal!
Hopefully a few pictures tonight / des photos ce soir, si tout se passe bien!
