It's Started!

Yes, it has started! Practices started and so have the rains. It seems that it is a rule:




Get on the boat ...check

Sky opens up and pours ...check

Get off the boat ...checkNumbered List

Rain stops ...check!





However, with that said, the rain here has been very welcome. With the heat in the 30's (that's Celsius, my friends) and the humity in the 60's (probably 70's now), the rain is a refreshing respite from the heat. You're either soaked from sweating or soaked from the rain. I chose rain.

GM Mixed was the first to practice on Tuesday and both Women's teams practiced today. It's wonderful to see Connie standing up at the front of the boat yelling sweet remembraces in our ears. It's often intimidating to other teams to see her standing there so calmly. LOVE THAT!

Practices went well and we left the race site with confidence. The racing starts tomorrow with the 2000 meter races! YIPPEE! Let the games begin!!!

Oh, and there was ALMOST no fighting on the boat!
