Varazdin Day 4

There's not much more to tell.

Run 6 really was a crowning finale. Yes, the obstacle, ok. But the rest was first class. The results table (page 9) speaks for itself. (Below as pdf)

Then there was, to my ears, far too loud music until the award ceremony. And then came the award ceremony. And there the team, you remember, Hubert 2.0 was awarded the special prize "Best Hardware Solution". One of the team members couldn't get to the stage fast enough and climbed up on a bar stool in front of the stage. Of course he got a special round of applause for that. And, 11th out of 15 teams, who would have thought it? Next year they will hopefully be competing with a more professional team. Research shows where they'll end up in the table.

Yes, we really wanted to stay until the end, honestly! But it dragged on and on. We snuck out after all, took a few more photos, did some more shopping and then off to Graz, our last stopover. We arrived there so late that we couldn't see what was possibly the most beautiful city. Another pizza and couscous, non-alcoholic beer and off to our beautiful accommodation.

Ben shows you a few more impressions. He will probably have a lot of sleep to catch up on in the coming week. Always spent late into the night at the editing table. Thank you very much.
