It is 6:30pm on Sunday and 9:24a, WA and CA time.

The championships are done. No clue who won, figured it wouldn't be posted till 9pm and we didn't want to wait.
In the team stuff today only one off course in jumpers and that was Mike Murphy. In the 3 dog relay one of the poodles went off course, that team consisted of 2 poodles and one 22" dog Ski. The other team of Mah, Sanders and Murphy had a super super clean run, but don't know if it was enough to place. The Russians had an awesome team one gal in particular Svetlana with 2 BC's both were equally good. She was fun to watch.

People don't spay and neuter their dogs in Belgium, even the mixed breeds are intact. But what I found amazing was that none of the boy dogs peed on things, posts, trash cans, peoples property-nothing. Had it been in the US everything post, table leg, trash can etc would have been peed on. One of my pet peeves. I have two boys and they have to squat NOT on things!!!!

The smoke in the stands was overpowering. There was no way to get away from it. The cigarette company's have a firm hold here in Europe.

They had an escargo (sp) vendor at the site, something you would not see in the US and I did not partake. I did however eat some sort of mystery meat shaped into the form of a hot dog then put in a deep fryer, it was good and probably best that I don't know what it consisted of. I didn't get sick or die from it, so it's all good.

We are off to The Netherlands tomorrow. I can only hope it is cooler.
