Good day fellow Earthlings, Day two marked another exiting day of adventures in the land of the Spanish for ATHF. This morning Nathan, Myself (Darryl) and our teammates were woken up by the infamous duck. Shortly after we came across a sort of bathroom fiasco, the culprit is still unknown... Lets just say the Spanish toilet engineering does not cooperate as well as our throwns do in the homeland. Nevertheless we pushed forward and enjoyed a delicious croisant breafast and made our way into Barcelona for a day of shopping and walking the La Rumba strip wit da bois + Sara. The strip was incredible and very busy but also extremnely interesting and nothing like anything we have ever seen before. We enjoyed wandering through the various sport stores and eateries, as well as strutting our stuff alone the harbour. Most of us have decided to wait till next week when we revisit Barcelona to do our shopping, except Mackenzie and Kraig who spent the afternoon in Guess and Coach looking for accessories for their special others (I think they will be quite satisfied!).Unlike our smooth entrance into Barcelona via the train, our exit was much more eventful. We boarded the first train that passed our track. But 45 minutes at 140 kmh got us well on our way to a small village in France. Fprtunately we assessed the issue before the customs lady arrived at our seats. We expertly evacuated the train and boparded a much slower return train that took us back into Granollers. After a little bit of rest the next big event of the day was the Opening Ceremnonies.The ceremonies included a healthy mixtuyre of standing around, walking, a human tower, ball throwing and drums. Because it was our lucky day, ATHF was awarded with the honour to folloow the queit, polite Quebec teams. The day was then rounded out with a late complementry dinner while watching the Korean U15 team run double ally-oops on the Spanish U15 national team. The team is certainkly enjoying the atmosphere of Granoller and have been soaking up plenty of sun rays. To sum things up it has been a long, hot day but also very exciting and eventful. We start matchplay tomorrow in the A.M and are very thrilled to be abl to reporesent Alberta and Canada in the best way possible. This is Nathan and Darryl signing off from Spain P.S if y`all wish for a Nathan and Darryl encore, feel free to bombard Mike with plenty of emails,tweets, and facebook messages.
