2nd day

Back in our rooms after out second Team USA pracitce here in Hungary.

We had our first practice yesterday approximately 20 minutes after arriving in the hotel. Please note that the race site is a 10 minute drive. We dropped our bags in our rooms, put on paddling gear and off we went. It felt good to be on the water after the trek from heck via Delta airlines. Did you know the DELTA stands for Didn't Ever Leave The Airport? 14 of us had a great flight on Sunday, oh wait no we didn't since it got cancelled. We then got scattered to the winds and had to make connecting flights with minimal time allotments to do so. Whatever, we made it in one piece and that's all that counts, right?

The entire Team USA contigency had a 3 hour water session this morning. It looks like a strong group all around. It's "interesting" to watch all of the different styles of paddling to say the least
I will be paddling in the 2000m on Sunday due to a paddler having to fly out early and the fact that there are only 20 masters women. Bummed only get to steer the Mixed 2000m but it will be fun to race in a bench again.

Write at ya again soon-
