Monday - Long Qualification

Today was the long qualification. Hanny and Kathryn had solid runs and qualified in 5th position in their respective heats. Grace had a good run but unfortunately lost a couple of minutes towards the end. We had dinner together at a pizzeria (we cook ourselves usually) and some yummy ice cream for dessert. Tomorrow is a rest day, though we do have the official opening ceremony to look forward to.


Kathryn and Victoria went to Miskolc Tapolca - some thermal "cave baths"

Some of the team checked out the "Biker Pub"

These guys weren't afraid of the green water


Jasmine wants a career where she can use a headset (ok, so she wants to be Troy)

Uh oh - what is the red card on the windscreen?

Oops - shouldn't have parked here

Our first night out for dinner... our team took up one table. Then the Finns arrived and took up about 5 tables :-)

Ice cream for dessert

  4. Hi girls,

    We've been glued to our laptop monitor the past 2 days.It's been very exciting. We have to rely on the commentary as the results pages don't seem to work properly. Great results so far and no doubt more to come. Enjoy the rest of the week, do what you do best and have fun.
