Sailing Mallorca

It was a normal wdnesday until the school bell rang. Then the day turned into the start of a new adventure... I was taking a ferry to Mallorca that night! 

I met in Blanes with some of my sailing team, there we took the trolleys with the boats and got on the road to Barcelona. At eleven thirty the ship was leaving straight to Mallorca. We arrived at half past six the next morning, very tired but excited, looking forward for the race we were going to compete in. We had to take the boats out of the trolley under the rising sun, with a freezing temperature. That day we had to pass the measuring test for the boats (an especialist cheks every part of your boat to ensure its legality) and formalize the inscriptions to the race: it was the Spanish championship!

The first day of race we were given two really uncommon things that made the race even more exciting: a bracelet that contained our information, to sign in before going to water and out afterwards. There was another update, a chip that followed our trajectory during the race.

The championship ended last Sunday, our results weren't very good but I was happy because I really had fun and met some new people. I would like to post this with a photo, but we have no good shots...
