Woke up in the morning feeling like...

skating official practice! Everyone was really pumped to perform our programs for the technical panel. After strolling on over to the ice rink we headed into the locker room. We laced our skates and tried to (unsuccessfully) translate our fellow Finish competitiors cheers. We took the ice and skated two strong run-throughs and still had time left to stroke around and really get our feet beneath us.


After lunch and a NAP :) we walked back over to the rink and cheered on our fellow Americans, Chicago Jazz. It was difficult to really watch the teams skate since we were being mobbed by French elementary students. The language barrier did not stop them from getting our autographs, shaking our hands and giving high-fives.


Now feelings of excitment and anticipation are in the air as we slick back our hair and beautify ourselves for short program tonight! We skate around 9:00PM (about 1:00PM, for you)! So, send good luck wishes and watch us LIVE on the official French Cup website:
