The pain has begun
I'm not really in all that much pain, I just liked the title and though it was a little fitting. When on earth did I last update. I don't know what i've told you and what i've left out. I'll start with my weekend, hows that?
I spent loads of money this weekend, but every penny I did spend was totally worth it. I bought a new waterproof jacket, it's marmot with gortex, Its fancy out, I like it, what makes me love it was the price. €70 in TK Max, I love that shop. I couldn't believe it when I saw the price, a jacket like that would usually sell for at least €200. I also bought a pair of fleece pants. They are so warm and comfortable, I figure they'll come in very handy for climbing. I bought other stuff too, how sad am I that I can't even remember.
Other than that my weekend was pretty quiet, I slept lots.
On Monday morning we finally started sports on the course and amazingly the weather held. My first day was spent kayaking. It was a bit windy which made life interesting. We mainly focused on strokes, and I actually learned stuff. Well perhaps not learned but corrected my way of doing things. I had become a very lazy paddler, leaning back and not paddling efficiently, that's changed. I was little sore this morning but nothing too debilliatating.
Today was another day kayaking. We went for a little tour, it was fantastic. The sun was shining, there was a very slight breeze and we took it easy. After lunch we practiced strokes and played some canoe polo, using a sponge for a ball. It was great fun, some people were very violent, but we all had a laugh.
Oh I forgot I took photos today, I really should upload them, but right now i'm feeling lazy, so your not going to see them for a while.
Tomorrow will be my first day of climbing, I can't wait, I hope the weather holds. Please stay sunny weather...
