This is our second JGP and we are so excited to be here.&nbsp; I&#8217;m sorry I was not able to blog the first day we were here, our day was filled with traveling and we were very tired.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>My day started this morning at around 7:30 when I woke up and got ready, then went to breakfast.&nbsp; Breakfast was so good! After breakfast, we headed off to the rink for warm up and practice.&nbsp; We had our first practice at 11:40 and it went pretty well.&nbsp; My legs are still a bit tired from all of the travel, but not too bad.&nbsp; We had our draw for the short dance in between each of the practices, and we will skate third. <\/p>\n<p>We ate a little after that and then it was time for our second practice.&nbsp; Second practice went pretty good as well, and it was nice to be able to feel the ice that we will be competing on. After a long day at the rink, we came back to the hotel and ate dinner with our good friends and training mates, Christina Carriera and Anthony Ponomarenko.&nbsp; &nbsp;Dinner was also very good, I had pasta and it was delicious!<\/p>\n<p>  <!--more-->  <\/p>\n<p>After that I went up to my room and the jet lag hit me like a ton of bricks! I fell asleep around 9:30 and I woke up several hours later to blog about my day.&nbsp; Sadly, I haven&#8217;t been able to see the town yet, but I definitely will soon and I can&#8217;t wait! <\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading. I will blog again soon! Bye for now!<\/p>\n<p>Payten<br \/><br data-mce-bogus=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Payten Howland, who represents Canada with partner Simon-Pierre Malette-Paquette, is blogging for ice-dance.com during the JGP event in Torun, Poland.
