World Dog Show 2016 Moscow 25.6.2016
excellent - open class - (25 females) Judge: MARINA OSTROVSKAYA (RUSSIA)
There is about 2100 km ahead us, similary like last year, when we went to Finland for European coursing championship. Car navigation says it will take about 24 hours - I have no idea, how bad the roads in Russia are. First part of the journey was 1400 km, Bratislava - Ludza, Latvia, where we stayed for the night. In the morning we plan to cross the borders to Russia. But in the morning, there was several-hours long queue there. We decided not to wait there and tried to go another 100 km to another boarder crossing. On one hand there were only three cars, but it still took us 3 hours. It is the same as during the times of communists, just the paperwork and stamps look different. So our plan about reaching Moscow on Friday and having a time to walk around the city and have a food dissolved. Some of the roads in Russian remind you of tankodrom, but in the end we finally reached the highway. Oh, well, the highway... no stripes there, everybody drives, where he wants and how he wants, and the highest permitted speed is 80k/per hour. Oh great - 700 km in 80 km/hour was exhausting. Around midnight we finally reached our destination and in the morning - hooray to the show halls! They were luckily enough quite near from our sleeping place.
Organization was perfect. No waiting anywhere in the showgrounds and everything was very beautiful, fully air conditioned, so you are ok, while outside there is terribly hot. International showground Krokus Expo is one of the newest and the most modern show-halls in the world. Inner place is about 701 800 m2, 3 pavilions with 19 show-halls inside of them, restaurants and caffes with capacity for 9500 sitting people. Parking capacity 35 000 places.
There was really lot to watch at the show. 132 borzoi, a movie camera in every ring and you can watch the show on-line. Aprelka was very tired after the travel, but she showed herself very well. The second day we went to the center of Moscow. I wanted the picture with two of us on the Red square, but it was extremely hot and we ended up in the park with the fountain. So we were on many photos anyway, everybody wanted to have a photo of borzoi taking a bath in the park. The next day we went our long way home. We also had to wait at the borders, but not for so long. Anyway, we have a lot of exciting experiences!!!

FCI European Coursing Championship 2016 /ME Veľké Pole (SK) 18.06.2016
Aprelka Lenel Slovakia has placed on a beautiful 12th place out of 44 running females with the overall assessment of 506 points.
It was also the most successful Slovak Borzoi at Championship 2016. Considering that it was 4th coursing in her life and Aprelka is still collecting experience, is it an amazing result. I love her so much!!!

5th place, Our first race on the oval, and outright in the competition of 5 females. Aprelka (yellow jacket) ran in the first place from the beginning, unfortunatelly in the third curve she was intimidated by barking of the female behind her and she let the other dogs go before her. But never mind, we are still gaining experiences.

FCI European Championship 6.-7.6.2015
The travel was long and exhausting, 21 hours from Prague to Tallin plus 2,5 hours ferry, but it totally worth it. We have a lot of great experiences. Katarína carred for us all like we were her own children, she offered us food and anything whenever it was needed, just like for her children!! Our Czechoslovak team traveled together and other members joined during the trip. This year, European championship took place in Finland, on the racing place near Helsinki. 588 sighthound from all over the Europe attended this sighthoung festival. Unfortunatelly number og dogs was smaller than previous ears, so there were only two race tracks. Aprelka is still only peaking into this world, but next year in Slovakia we plan to run!
This year Czech group was lucky to get one title, which got Zdeněk Barák with italian sighthound female, two third places for Ilona Dubnová with wolfhound male and female, Eva Dufková kept her forth place from last year with Jarvisem - greyhound. And Jana Halenková got sixth place with Drak - podenco ibicenco. We dont have so many placements as other years, because we were only few there. Slovakian dogs got one third place, it was for Olga Dašková with borzoi Dogoni Menja Mraja and sixth place for Roman and Slávka Božikovi with whippet. And in the end we enjoyed a little holiday in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Camargue Francie 2015
It was fantastic holiday in a bird paradise in the delta-mouth of the river Rhona, bordering on the north with the town Arles.
The Camargue is home to more than 400 species of birds and has been identified as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International. Its brine ponds provide one of the few European habitats for the greater flamingo. About 20 000 pairs of flamingos nest here every year. The marshes are also a prime habitat for many species of insects, notably (and notoriously) some of the most ferocious mosquitos to be found anywhere in France. Camargue horses (Camarguais) roam the extensive marshlands, along with Camargue cattle.
The native flora of the Camargue have adapted to the saline conditions. Sea lavender and glasswort flourish, along with tamarisks and reeds.

Our little photo-trip.
Every morning and evening I went to take a photos of birds and the rest of the time I enjoyed with the girls on the endless empty beaches, in one word - paradise. Our girls loved it, they like shallow pond, where you can easily run, sand dunes, long beaches. Even after several hours it was impossible to get Sára out of the sea.
