Day 7: Barcelona Training Trip!
Welcome to Day 7 of our 2017 HAC / GCAC Barcelona Training Trip!
Today we're swam our FINAL practice :) We have mixed feelings: while we're happy to be going home & that the week of 'pain' is over, we'll be sad to leave Calella... and even more sad to return to the world of homework and 'catch up'. All of the kids here are EXCELLENT students so I'm sure they've been studying every night before bed... haha :) (No, I'm not dreaming because if I was, I wouldn't be listening to the recycling truck making it's rounds AGAIN at 12:10AM... OMG!!!)
We have the winners of the Team Challenge! The Superior Sunshine Sharks did it!; the Water Cheetahs (aka the Wet Cheetos) came in second, and the Banana Negative Splits rounded out third! Congratulations to everyone on a SPECTACULAR week!!!
All of our coaches + our chaperone had an evening in the spa before our depature :)
What a great trip, can't wait for the next one :)

| Stretching aka waking up :) We were in the pool a little earlier than usual, swam over 2 hrs today! |
 |
| Caps on, we go next top... |
 |
| We've REALLY appreciated the extra sleep this trip compared to AZ! |
 |
| Wakey wakey Brianner! |
 | |
| Jenna P had a smile on her face for 'most' of the trip! |
Ok, so right now literally it's 12:54am, and garbage collection is happening GRR! I hope I'm the only one who can here it LOL, our swimmers need to sleep because we have an early morning wake up :)
 |
| Now we're groovin' :) |
 |
| Ready.... go! |
 |
| Nothing beats repeat 200s best average with a team challenge component to end the camp! |
 |
| We cap off the day with slowest 50m, it was great! It was a close finish between Brennan, Hanna and Abby. WARNING: The following pictures are out of my hands, literally. The girls commandeered the camera, view at your own peril LOL! |
 |
| Afterwards, we said goodbye to the Russians. (They got to hear some of our soundtrack today, too!!!) |
 |
| After a short break, we were on route with the three moms + two grandparents to Besalu... Enjoy! |
After a short bus ride, we arrived in Girona (heart)!!! Coach Carmen + I could live here :)
What a great trip, can't wait for the next one :)
