Well Kyra promised to write a daily report from Zagreb every day as far as possible, and here is part 1 she wrote yesterday! 
(hope I translated it ok lol)
So the second day in Zagreb! Yesterday I wasn't able to train. It took us until 16.00 to get accreditation and the last bus to the icerink left at 16.00. So we just looked around a bit and did some shopping. I was pretty tired actually, so after dinner I went to my room, watched tv, read something, called my parents and went to sleep on time.
This morning I had to get out of bed early, because I had practice at 9.40! I was lucky to be in the last group, because some already had practice at 6.00 this morning! Practice went well and Aida, who doesn't sleep in our hotel (we sleep in a hotel 20 minutes by bus from the icerink, she just has to walk a few minutes!), was also at practice.
After practice I met my Swiss friend, Bettine Heim, who will also compete here. I already know her for years and I often see her at international competitions. We talked a lot and decided to go shopping together after the afternoon practice and the draw.
My draw is not that bad, I start as 6th, last in the first group. Luckily I didn't draw number 1!
So, in the afternoon me and Bettine went "window shopping" in the city centre of Zagreb!
We just ate dinner and now I'm writing my journal and soon I will call home.
Tomorrow the competition begins at 17.00 for me, so tomorrowmorning I will go to practice and after I will take some rest! I'm looking forward to it very much!
Love, Kyra.
