I had a great Sunday and I can't wait to share it with you. For you that don't know, I live in Split, Croatia and here, it is almost summer. It is hot, but luckily, it is a bit windy so you can still enjoy the day without that crazy summer heat. My two friends and I decided to seize this beautiful day so we made a great plan.
We headed to Sustipan. A place where you can see a lot of different people enjoying the day. It is our little picnic zone. We met our other 2 friends with their adorable dogs and we tried to do a slackline. I tried slack line few times, but you know, if you don't practice that art often, you will not be good at all trying now and then. So again, I couldn't make two steps by myself haha I had help from my friend by holding him on the shoulder. Nonetheless, I had a great fun because I love balance and I love to practice it in life.
A friend of my friend was really good at slacklining. He knows how to turn 180 degrees and how to sit and get up without falling. I was standing in awe watching him and thinking how I need to try to practice this art more. It's so hard and that makes it so beautiful.
We even got a visited by helicopter. I don't know what was the purpose that he flew here, it is really rare to see a helicopter here. Anyway, I took a picture of it just for fun.
After an hour and so, we headed to the center of Split. Our friend, which is our teammate in American football club Split SeaWolves, played a baseball game for Nada Split. By the way, Nada is translated HOPE on English. They were playing Croatian National Baseball League game against Zagreb. On Saturday they won against them, and today it was a rematch.
Nada Split won 17-9 and all of the fans celebrated, all four of us xD haha yes, baseball is not that much followed by the fans but it is played from a long time ago here, just like rugby. On this field rugby and baseball club Nada are playing their home games. Once, 3 years ago, Split SeaWolves played one game of American football, the first game in the history of the city. As you can see in the picture below, the fans were all over the place haha
After the match, I went to search for the balls that flew out of the stadium from home run hits. I found one ball (1st picture) and it was time to go to my practice of American football. Luckily, it is five minutes by foot so I didn't need to hurry. I made it on time and it was an excellent day for practice. There were about 20 players on practice so the coach could make his plans go by the plan :D We are practicing for the upcoming tournament in Split and we want to secure the first place in the league before final four.
We are near the end of Flag Football season and our tackle football preseason starts in 2 days. That is when the real American Football starts. We are getting ready for SSW Camp 2018 and we want to win Flag championship and carry that into a tackle season and try to defend our title for the second time. We already defended it and did something never done before in our country. We will try to write history one more time. Anyway, we had a great practice and I'm really proud of my defense and offense for enduring through this hot day. It's so pleasing to see people together fighting for the same cause.
After the practice and the shower, of course, I visited what is going on on Steemit. A few moments later, I'm in a situation where I need to decide will I watch the live stream of NBA Conference Finals. It was an early game so in my country, it was played at 9 pm, so I decided to round this day with one more American sport :D It was this kind of day and I said to my friend to come to my place. The game was played between Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers, where Celtics played at home. It was a clash between LeBron and his crew and Brad Stevens and his system and a team that lost its 2 stars, Gordon Hayward and Kyrie Irving, a long time ago. I was cheering for Boston and oh boy I was lucky that I watched this game live. Boston completely demolished Cavaliers, something that nobody expected. Well, nobody expected even that Boston will beat 76ers and Bucks, but here they are, making fun on Lebron and Cavaliers. This was the first game in the series and it ended 108 - 83. It will be very interesting to watch this series.
Anyway, after the game I was really hyped with the whole game, even though I almost broke my two fingers on practice, so I'm kinda writing with 1 hand xD But, that is the normal thing in this sport so I need to get used to it, the tackle season is near and I'm warming up, I guess so :D.
