Últimos días de 2011

Again time has gone so fast that I haven't had enough time to write a new post, or maybe I just have been lazy because of holiday but it isn't wrong, right?

I don't have lot of to tell, end of the year gone just relaxing, enjoying the weather, playing with boys, doing little shopping and so on...

 We were searching a health center when we found

this nice playground.

Inside of other shopping mall called Aqua is a little skating rink where people can try to skate while they are shopping so of course we went to try it. But have to say that it was easily the worst experience of skating, because it wasn't even skating but only walking with skates. But what you can expect from ice which is really made by plastic pieces. However I can't complain because boys liked it, maybe because it was their first time skating and they don't know better. Staff didn't wonder anymore why we didn't like the skating rink when I said that we are from Finland.

 Still there was lot of people queuing for it.

 Jasu was really happy after and said many times:

"I had so fun!" :D

 There was also one king receiving children's gift

lists and giving candies because here day of the

kings is another christmas.

Last day of the year 2011 I had little trainings in our normal training place near to Palau de la Música, or actually in front of it. Weather was again something to where I haven't been used to in Finland at the end of the year as you can see from the pictures below!

 Jhon wishes happy new year to everyone! :D

Shortly before midnight we went to rooftop with Neea to change the year immemorial way, long way away from Finland. We expected that here would have been massive fireworks on new year's eve, but no, some little fireworks here and there but nothing big like on the Spanish national day.

 Welcome 2012!

Mañana intentaré escribir sobre nuestro Día de los Reyes.

Tricking in Villarreal

Last week's saturday I went to Villarreal (in Valencian: Vila-real) to train tricking with my local friends. Villarreal is one part of the city of Castellon and it's located about 60 kilometers from Valencia to north. Distance is pretty short but by commuter train it took about 50 minutes to get there. And round trip was only a little more than 7 euros, not bad.

More than 10 people came from Valencia by train, and in Villarreal there were lot of more people from Castellon area, I guess there were at least 40 trainers. It’s funny because here it was like normal trainings with local people but in Finland this size of trainings would be a gathering with people around the country.

Gym is really nice place to train, there is lot of gymnastics stuff, mattresses, big soft gymnastic floor and pool with soft cubes which name in English I don’t know. We had four hours to train, from 4 to 8 so I had to take it easy because I had been a bit sick few weeks before those trainings.

Hungry people. :D

Conductor was really interested on our sport so we showed some

videos to him.

Little warming up before trainings. :D

Lot of stops before destination...

Little more interesting landscapes than in Finland?

After train we walked to other side of the city.

Finally!

Pool with soft cubes.

Gymnastic floor, very good and soft.

 

Group photo. Not everyone on this photo because some people

left before our turn ended. 

Now I can't add any videoclips with this bad internet connection but maybe I update this post on work next week, let't see...

Era muy buen viaje y toda la peña era muy amable y divertido, me gustó mucho! Pero es una cosa que no me gusta, solo ida tarda dos horas más o menos. En Valencia hay un gym también pero no podemos usar eso así tenemos que ir a Villarreal si queremos entrenar en gym. Normalmente entrenamos aquí en cesped frente de Palau de la Música.

Y gracias a Neea sobre mi viaje de entrenamiento!

Diciembre tan diferente

I'm not lying at all if I say that december has started with sunbathing! Of course it isn't like that everyday but the beginning of december has been very sunny and I can imagine that this christmas is going to be very different, without snow and everything. But that Finnish weather I don't miss, I'm going to enjoy this weather as long as it takes!

 Do I have to describe this?

I guess Otto is explaining something. :D

Otto doing tricks.

One style to spend time in december!

This week has been different because tuesday and thursday were holiday from work so we have been able to enjoy more about this good weather. It's a bit annoying to have like three mondays on the same week, but I don't complain.

Later yesterday we went to the Palau de la Música where I usually go to train with my local friends. We couldn't be long time there because boys are always so crazy and it's hard to concentrate because have to take care of them at the same time. But short trainings are still better than without trainings! Thanks to Neea for making my trainings possible! :)

Little test clip...

En pocas palabras: me encanta!
