Day Ocho (8): 3 little pigs, coaching & Spaghetti Bolognese

Holaaa chica a chicos (:
Sophie a Charlotte aqui (:

Morning Start and 3 Little PigsWe started off with an early start leaving the hotel at 9:15..well supposed to be that time except we had to wait 10 minutes for the spice boys to finish getting ready...Luke, Niall and Jake! I have to say they're worse than us getting ready!

Once all set to go we took a daily trek to the cold sports centre where we practiced in our groups our little childhood stories...ours being the 3 little pigs.  This took ages to go through as we kept changing the way we were going to act it through while also trying to rehearse it to Toni.  It was our first proper rehearsal so it was bound to be 'mal' (bad) especially with us talking throughout it about how we were going change bits.  Talking about how our little show was going to go down got us into arguments as some people didn't listen and talked over others....got life a little stressful!

The group practicing 'The Three Little Pigs'

Morning Coaching Games

Our little group consisted of us two Zoe and Rachel, where we played a game where the children had to race to the cones by stepping through hoops, we called it ARO DOS ARO (hoop 2 hoop).  It was rather fun game as we got involved cheering them on by shouting rapido (quick) and vamos (go).  I (Sophie) went a little over the top running with them and cheering them on to get them motivated and ended up getting a headache..but it was all good fun!  We had four groups in which we had to do the same game to.

Dinner

Dinner consisted of having meatballs, some type of cheesy bites, baguette slices and some other weird pastry thing (I don't have a clue what it was).  Todays meal was actually nice, and I loved the way that at our end of the table, the food always goes before everyone elses...totes (totally) not good enough!

We actually had some hot weather today..so a few of us sunbathed in our shorts and strappy t-shirts, and some boys no tops ....erghhh!
although I (Sophie) still felt a little bit nippy, as I always do all year round! Not Fun!

Coaching

Sophie - Pre-Sport and Paddel

I didn't really like Pre-Sport today because we didn't really do anything except for pad up the childrens hand to protect them ready for Pelota Valencianna (Valencian Ball) and this pretty much took the whole session with only 10 minutes to play.  I ended up doing one girls hand wrong, because she was supposed to be wearing a glove, but because she didn't have one, i just put the padding on anyway....oops my bad! but I sorted it out afterwards. I just couldnt quite exactly figure out what Toni was trying to tell me because he told me one thing then we told me another thing.
In the next hour I got to play paddel which is like tennis and squash mixed together I was mal (bad) but bien intendo (nice try) but it was really fun and for my first time playing it I was actually alright! :D.... I was practicing ready for our mixed doubles tournament on friday!

Charlotte - Skating

Skating today was absolutely immense! The chicas (girls) brought their spare skates with them so me and Steve could show them what we were made of!...nothing if i'm honest.

We got involved with the session both coaching and taking part. At the beginning of the session we shown the group are figure skating and then went onto racing each other around the course and playing british bull dogs. Felt quite sorry for the girls in my group as i couldn't skate around corners or stop which defeated the object. My spirits were lifted when some girl came up to me and said "you beautiful!" SO CUTE! :)

As you can see from the picture below me and Steve are Professional skaters and are representing the UK in the London 2012 Olympics. (JOKES!)

Tea

Tea was spagetti bolognese which was really nice, however, even though it is an italian chef who works in the restaurant, I'd still prefer my mums (Sophie's) spag bol as it has much better taste .... nothing better than your mothers homemade cooking! (:

ADIOS AMIGOS
