Day 1 continued.....

As already mentioned, the wifi connection is not great at all, even the uploads I'm struggling with, so please bear with me.....

The hotel oasis papagayo is a huge complex, very clean and spacious, everyone was allocated their rooms and given an hour to unpack before we all met up in reception to have a tour of the complex.  Everyone had a shock when Matt Sharpe and Chris Wilson turned up for the tour with........

PINK HAIR!!

We had a good look at the facilities, and even bumped into Karen Driver and Kate (triathlete) who were already in the 25m pool doing a bit of training! We then continued to the 50m pool and had a look at the layout, the lanes are very wide, so there should be no problem with the numbers in each lane.  After the tour it was tea time, there was a large selection of food, so everyone fed well.  After tea, we all ventured to the supermarket and stocked up on food and drink for the next couple of days. Then the children kept themselves entertained playing tig and hide and seek around the complex. (They all slept well!).

It's early days, with the lack of Internet access, updating wont be easy, but I will do my best to get it done each day as early as possible.

The time now is 9.40am and the group has been split into 3.  Currently one group are having their induction in the gym, then another 2 groups will follow.  Their first training session is this evening 4-6pm, so bye for now and keep checking!
