Skating Competition 2015

Months of training and diamante application culminated in a glittery competition within the club. After some very questionable judging Katherine got a bronze. She was disappointed and is determined to "try really hard and get a gold medal next year". Hmm. Nevertheless, it is very obvious from the pictures that she thoroughly enjoyed it. Lizzy remembered her whole routine and did it with her game face on. As usual, she got a gold medal. She looked pleased as plum on the podium.


Warming up...





Sorry about the camerawork...

Katherine's first Ski

\
After an early rise and a 2 hour drive down to the Erzgeberg we enjoyed perfect beginner conditions. Katherine got to about the same level as Lizzy had done after her first day of skiing at Geising. She loved it and didn't want to quit even though she was exhausted.

Lizzy had a great time riding the T-bar with a girl the same age and ability as her.
