5 minutes

It has different types. The Hungarian one: ‘I’ll be there in 5 minutes’ means ‘I’m miles away and there is no hope to see you today’ . The Belgian one: ‘The balloons will up in five minutes’ means ‘have a dinner, take a walk and meet some friends before the show’. The American one: ‘we’ll continue in 5 minutes’ means ‘4.59… 4.58…  4.57… ‘

I had a great weekend in Belgium, at Hyperflite Skyhoundz EC. I really needed something that is unusual and totally different from my weekdays.  So I packed all of my dogs and left home about midnight. I had to stop for almost two hours at night because of a heavy storm in Austria.  First example of Hungarian five minutes: I met the Hungarian team about 9 a.m. in Germany – they left Budapest 3 hours before me. Finally they arrived to the camp about 7 p.m., I don’t know how it is possible.

Our campsite was next to the field. I had a tent for four, so It was really comfortable for all of my dogs, and they left a small place for me also.  There was just a small incident at Saturday night when Stefaan found a Border Collie searching for food. I don’t know how he knew immediately that it should be mine, I just  let Moss out of control for 5 minutes…

Some words about  results. I really didn’t know  what I want, I mean  I wasn’t sure that I would to go to the Worlds.  By the results it seems I wouldn’t  :) But the D/A European Champions this year are Jozsef Zsiros and Seesco,  Edina and Zsizsik ended on 2nd place in Microdog, and there are some more Hungarian qualifications. And there were some great routines, as Daniel’s, Tina’s  and the pairs of Juergen and Conny.

On Saturday and Sunday  we could see a balloon show at the evening (5 minutes after dinner), it was amazing to see those huge things flying away.  And they can’t come back, believe me Alenka :)   And time flied also very fast, suddenly I realized that I’m on the road again with the usual travel packs: dogs, chocolate, coffee and classical rock hits. It’s not a big surprise that in Germany  two policemen stopped me and made a drug test . They hardly believed that I passed.
