We are skating 3rd.<\/p>\n<p>The first practice went ok.&nbsp; My legs didn&#8217;t feel like usual but, by the second practice, I was back to my old self.&nbsp;&nbsp; The complex has two rinks, one for practice and a main rink. This one is awesome!<\/p>\n<p>After practice we talked with our coach, made plans for the rest of the day and stretched. Then, we were heading for our bus ride to the hotel.&nbsp; What is the most important thing for a skater at a JGP after their skates and costumes?&nbsp; Their accreditation passes.&nbsp; As I come to get into the bus, I realized I had nothing around my neck.&nbsp; I looked inside my bag.&nbsp; Nothing.&nbsp; I ran back to the locker room and lucky enough it was there waiting for me.&nbsp; I ran outside and the bus driver stopped the bus, so I was able to go back in with the rest of the team!<\/p>\n<p>  <!--more-->  <\/p>\n<p>I went back to the hotel and decided to go for a walk in the streets of Ostrava, the old part, with my partner.&nbsp; Walking can sometime get boring but not with Anthony!&nbsp; He is quite funny and makes me laugh and yes he saw another car &#8211; a nice Jaguar.<\/p>\n<p>After the walk we went for dinner with Lorraine, Quinn, Lindsay, Jacob and Andrew! We had a great time! I really love my experience so far.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2900\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.ice-dance.com\/site\/jgp-ostrava-blog-2-first-practice\/14jgpostrava-christina2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ice-dance.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/14jgpostrava-christina2.jpg?fit=450%2C367&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"450,367\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"14jgpostrava-christina2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ice-dance.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/14jgpostrava-christina2.jpg?fit=450%2C367&amp;ssl=1\" class=\" size-full wp-image-2900\" style=\"margin: 5px; border: 1px solid #000000;\" alt=\"14jgpostrava-christina2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ice-dance.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/14jgpostrava-christina2.jpg?resize=450%2C367&#038;ssl=1\" height=\"367\" width=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ice-dance.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/14jgpostrava-christina2.jpg?w=450&amp;ssl=1 450w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.ice-dance.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/14jgpostrava-christina2.jpg?resize=300%2C245&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Going to bed, tomorrow practice at 8!<\/p>\n<p>Good night from Ostrava!<\/p>\n<p>Christina<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi, Me again&#8230;.
