Dundee World Cup

Today my daughter and I had a girls only day (because the boys refused to join us :)) and went to the Rhythmic Gymnastics Dundee World Cup.
As seen from the second picture, we were among the first to arrive in the hall and had excellent seats.
In  the spirit of MMM13, I wore my Verena cardigan, and she - her lilac Joy:



In the morning we watched individual contestants, manipulating a ball and a hoop:




We enjoyed it so much, that we decided to abandon our plans for the afternoon and came back for the team performances: 10 clubs event and two ribbons and three balls event :




I love watching rhythmic gymnastics on TV, but nothing compares to the live experience in the hall, cheering and supporting the participants together with the other spectators!
The award ceremony - Sylvia Miteva (BG) won the second place for the individual participants and the Bulgarian team was first in the team contest:

  1. What a fun event to attend! Rhythmic gymnastics doens't really get much face time on TV and yet it's amazing how flexibility and strength can be balanced with an object.
