Sunday, 13th September 2009, the holidays are over and we are both working, but we decided to nicely spend one day in Germany with the orchestra from Dolni Benešov, where Denisa wanted to meet after such a long period her friends and Antoine also 🙂
Our journey started after a short night (partying the evening before Caroline’s & Gaetan’s 10th Anniversary) from Braine l´Alleud a bit later that was expected, Antoine feeling a bit sick… But we arrived on time, although we were after calling with Denisa´s brother we weren’t sure to go to the correct city.
It wasn’t so easy to follow the GPS, which pressed us to turn in the middle of speedway, where was not way out or in tunel for example, but Antoine managed as well as to find parking place in so crowdy city where started international competition for orchestras, bands, dancers and majoretes.
Denisa took part to the competition with the MeOM (orchestra from Dolní Benešov) and their majoretes in few categories such as marching, concert song, and majoretes dance. The results were unexpected, orchestra won all categories in which they took part, plus conducter and leader of majoretes got price for the best directers of their groups and orchestra became absolute winner. 🙂
After a short celebration, came the time for the return journey.. 4 hours later we were back home, happy of our day 🙂
