I'm sitting at the closing ceremony for the European Championships. Today was a long drawn out day with no wind and no sailing. It was such a shame because we only sailed 3 out 6 days totalling 7 out of 12 races.
On the positive side,however, the experience has been awesome and I am sure that all the sailors will set themselves new goals with their sailing. It is amazing to all the other countries here that New Zealand sends their fourth ranked team to the second ranked regatta in the world. What is also amazing is that our sailors perform so well. Getting top 20 results in the races is wonderful and shows our sailors can match with some of the best in the world.
Now we are off to Berlin tomorrow at 5am so we can have the day there to do more looking around. Farewell to Poland - the people here have been lovely and given us an experience we will never forget :-)
