Block 118 row 9. It's on the judges' right. It's a bit toward the corner, so not the greatest seat, but I got it sooo cheap!!! Of course you'll get first hand reports: although no free internet at the hotel this time!

maybe the official hotel will have free internet or some other hotel in the vicinity... have you got an all-event ticket? or just single tickets for dance events? not sure if I'll be watching everything, seems a bit too much. will try to watch as much as possible of course. but with no dutch lady competing I'm not really interested in that. sorry yuna fans but OMG insomnia is already starting now and worlds is still a week away

Ok, all seems ready. The banner arrived safely yesterday and it's beautiful!!! I hope they will show it on TV and especially that Oksana and Max will see it! Flag is ready too (thanks to my mum!) ;D Xavier will have a flag too, and another banner... In other words...we're all set and ready to show our mad support!!! Oh, and guess what? Turns out that Xavier and I are staying at the same hotel! I'm so happy!!! We're both arriving on Saturday and have all-events tkts! Renee, you know what I mean. It's good to have someone to share your craziness and nerves with, when the time comes! We'll keep in touch, although no, there is no free internet at the hotet, but I think Xavier has his laptop with him! Go Oksana and Max!!!

Thank you guys! The black hair looks good on Oksana. I liked the red dress better but this one probably matches her hair better now.
Excitement is growing and growing ;D

www.delobel-schoenfelder.fr/Olivier discusses what he thinks are the strong and weak points of Oksana and Maxim: StrongExpression Experience 2nd place finish at GPF WeakMaxim's injury Less solid technically than other top contenders He also says they could win if: 1. They skate a good CD and win this part of the competition 2. When they can show the difference in maturity with the other couples 3. When they can remain solid technically in comparison to the others. 4. When they don't suffer too much from their rivalry with Khokhlova and Novitski (he says the same thing about rivalry when he discusses Khokhlova/Novitski )
