So much stuff going on, I'll post more on Regina when I'm at home and have access to the photos.
"The Scream" and "Madonna", stolen masterpieces by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, were recovered by police last week, two years and nine days after gunmen seized the paintings from an Oslo museum.
Adam, Tamas, Attila and Mark Oldershaw cleaned up in the final World Cup competition in Guangzhou, China.
Click here for complete results. The website could use a little work when it comes to photos. Clicking on the regatta photo album produces some pics of the athletes' residence, tennis and basketball courts.
Anyway, in a nutshell;
Adam won 2 gold in K-1 and jumped into the K-4 to help the guys win 1 silver and 2 bronze medals. For the world cup series he was 1st overall in points.
Budays won 1 silver (1000m) and 1 bronze (500m) in C2 (not sure of overall points for this series)
Mark won 2 bronze in C1 and finished 3rd overall in points.
Mark and Adam are amazing - they flew to Regina from Hungary and raced at CCA before making the trip to Asia. Jet-lag is obviously not an issue when you've got an athlete's resources.
I visited Guangzhou in 1999 when they had just opened a new Olympic stadium. It was all they could talk about. In fact, 650,000 residents voted that it be listed as the city's top scenic landmark. The regatta course is no less impressive.
