Schonach

Now it's time for my first entry in 2013! The year started really great as I was in Schonach last weekend for the Nordic Combined World Cup and the skijumping World Cup of the ladies. It was the first time that I've been there and I was really excited. The question was also if the World Cup would take place, because it was really warm and there was no snow. But they luckily made it to prepare the hill and the cross country track. The trip to Schonach started early in the morning at 5 a.m. to arrive in time for the training rounds that already started at 9 a.m.. Arrived in Schonach I saw the last jumps of the first training round of the nordic combined athletes followed by the second round and the PCR. Then I watched two training rounds of the ladies before I went up to the cross country stadium. In the evening I went to the start numbers ceremony.
The next day started also really early with the jumping part of the nordic combined team competition. After that we saw the first competition of the ladies. Then we went up again to watch the cross country race. But it was really foggy that day. Normaly you can see almost the whole cross country stadium, but this time we could only see 50m clearly. So it was not really easy to take good photos.
On sunday there was a individual nordic combined competition and the second comp of the ladies. I only saw the first round of the ladies and went then we went up to the stadium again. The day started really good and it seemed as if we would have good weather without any fog. But unfortunately it came back. When we arrived at the stadium you couldn't see anything. It was worse than the day before and we could only see the athletes when they stood in front of us.
After an exiting competion won by Jason Lamy Chappuis we had to go back home again. It was a really exciting and funny weekend!!
The first photos are already online, but I still need some time for the rest. :)
