Masters´ Scrabble Tourney in Girona

Hi! Hi! Hi!

After several months without playing in real life, I went again to visit my Club: Scrabble Girona for playing the Masters´ Tourney.

I arrived at midday and had lunch at Patxi and Monte´s home, where also was Arantxa. Of course I played with Patxi a couple of rounds, but he made me to released how out of fit I am.



That night we stayed at David and Susana´s home (and their 2 dogs!) :) they really were great hosts! David also played a bit the guitar and share with us part of his guitars´ collection.








Here some pics of Saturday´s rounds

Scrabble weekend: good night!

After their siesta, I played a game with Montse that got me back to the reality :(

A light dinner, that in my case was just about a tomato and palm heart salad plus rice. Montse went early to sleep, we received the call from a Club collegue wishing us good luck, a game with Isaac (Montse´s soon that by miracle wanted to play!) and that I won by miracle as well… and a couple of games with Patxi, first one the kind of games that lucky me, I received almost the letters in the right order from the bag, second one the kind that both players are doing it so fine and any of them could win, the ones you enjoy no matter the resoult!

As good kids that also should awake early for going to a tourney (and we told David and Susana we´ll met them at 8), we are going to sleep at midnight. Patxi didn´t want to be as well a “Cinderella” and is the only one irreverent not going to sleep.
So, good night, see you tomorrow, Scrabble people with tourney and the Lunnis are going to sleep! :D

Scrabble weekend: Scond part: walking around Girona

After going to bed at 4, I start the day at 11. Patxi and Montse are even ready for going out and surprised us with a delicious orange juice recently done and toasts that I take with tomato and oil.

We went to walk around Girona, so Curro can´t say I´d shut him at Patxi and Montse´s house.

We ate at the Tips, that in Catalan means “full” (of being full after eating a lot).




I just loved the place, due the place itself but also… I would like to find those prices in Madrid! We ate quite a lot, I should say.



We went back to their house and Patxi and me played a couple of games more, but while he´s making a coffee, I took the chance to actualize my blog… and just some minutes later, I released that him and Curro are completely sleeping and Montse is watching a film (one of those that you find in t.v. on Saturday´s afternoon)… this is the scene I found:



So, I decided to work on my post! :)

Scrabble weekend in Catalunya.First part: Girona

Hi! I know, there´s still pending the last part of the Girls´s weekend story, but I´m with my Scrabble Club in Girona right now and tomorrow (Sunday) will be the tourney at torneo de Sant Andreu… and I´ll try to put my own version of it in my blog in real time!

Friday 17

Going to Girona

Curro and I are going by plane, with Ryanair. I love low cost airlines! I got a super price for this flight, so, would be expensive to stay in Madrid! :D

All was fine, but I had a bad episode with a ground stewardess that made me to keep my purse at the hand luggage… if it would be a big purse, I could understand it… but is just a bit bigger than a cap! Gggrrr! And I had been watching afterwards, of course, she didn´t told anybody else to do the same, even when other purses were quite bigger than mine! Well, I won´t let this girl to spoil my weekend!



It was raining in Girona… that´s why it is so green! :)



Lunch

The landing was around 15.00, we went from the airport to the city by bus and we decided to eat in a mexican restaurant before going to Patxi and Montse´s home, they will be our hosts this weekend.

Sadly the Mexican rest. was already closed, so we went to the König, that is a great fast food place with hot dogs, hamburgers, sandwiches and similars. It has a great quality/price relation place.



Scrabbe night

Once at Patxi and Montse place, we start talking a lot, long time without being together! I had play 2 games with each one and I feel really happy to notice that I´m not in that bad fit as I thought.

That night a lovely couple joined us: David and Susana, also club SG members. We start a game with Patxi, at our side Susana and David play as well, while we wait the dinner to be ready, Montse and Curro are on it.

The dinner was great! Patxi have done some marvelous Spanish Omelets and Montse some delicious “tigres”. Plus some cheese, olives, bread and sausages and you got a great dinner!

We keep on playing after the dinner, the 2 last games were the classic: girls against boys, at that time Curro and Montse were already sleeping, but I know Curro´s snores were trails to give them clues of what to play! ;) David and Susana left around 4.00 a.m., I could say it was just about being shy about the time it was, because I noticed they would prefer to keep on playing! (I´ll put the video and pics on next week).
