Finally the final results were available on the official notice board. One of the
French teams started to cheer and shout. The champions! Or? We became shared 8th.
At least, that’s what we thought. During a nice diner at the hotel with both of
the Swedish teams and the friendly Ukrainian team by my side I was told that
the true winner of the competition is Rokas, one of the Lithuanian pilots. At the last moment the
French team got a penalty of 500 points because they turned on their ventilator
this morning while the red flag was in raised. (Rumour! Seems it was because of distance infringement during the Elbow, task 12. So, there should have been more space in between the thrown markers). Auwch!! The official results
furthermore stated that we were now definitely nr. 8. The Austrian team which scored
the same eventually had some points less. Whoohoo, 8th!!! You can imagine it
was time for a good beer after that news :).
One
completely other thing… Some weeks ago I got my driving license. I was very
pleased to be able to drive abroad for the first time! Nienke on the road in
Lithuania, whoeiii, nice!
Tomorrow
the closing ceremony and banquet will be held and after that it's time to go
back home. More information about the upcoming picture gallery and movie will
be found here soon.
A big thanks for the enormous amount of visitors these days!
