Home sweet home.

Its been a while. So I raced in Madrid and had a bad bad race, not much more to say then that. After Madrid I went to Liptovsky Mikulas Slovakia and had some good adventures and watched a very high level kayak race. Then I made it home, I got sick on the plane so when I got home I couldn't really do anything. Then my dad calls me up and needs me to go to California with him so he can get this camper. So I went and the Cali trip took way longer then it should have, like 3days longer. Bla. But now I am back at home and its unreal! Today was so so good. Gym, Sauna, mt bike ride on vedder (with a new trail just off chain crazy) then I played Squash vs Brad Rodgers. I didn't win. I am going to paddle a kayak tomorrow and hike up Mt Cheam some time this weekend. But I stubbed my toe and it kind of hurts, at least I didn't get a squash racket in the face. Here are a bunch of photos not in order.

So the one day in Slovakia I did this wicked adventure, rode my bike up this mountain for 1.5hrs then locked my bike to a tree in the middle of the woods then put on a some hiking clothing and hiked around the mountains for 5hrs then rode back to the hostel. It was a unreal day, I got hailed on so hard, I thought I was going to die. It was the first hike I have done in a long time and couldn't walk for like 3 days after. Oh but so worth it!

Ben showing how to use his mouth as a knife, if you need to make a sandwich this is how you do the tomato part.
There was these kids at the kayak race who had the most unreal mullets. I was kind of jealous, I think I am going to grow one, I cant wait to play hockey with it flowing out the back of my helmet eh. Its about time to get a mullet eh.
This is what you eat when you are watching a race. Much better then doing the race and eating power gels. But the heart burn after is not so good. I think this was the best sausage I have ever had, no joke. And the spicy mustard, oh forget about it.
We would play Settlers of Catan every night. I won the overall with little to no prior settlers experience. Toby and Ben were pissed. And I was loving it. The last game I killed it, I went with the Development card overkill method. Stone, wheat, sheep. look at all that red on the board. oh mama.
