WOW!! It was a very tough meet. there were 2 teams there that were so far above everyone else. Made me think these teams should have moved these girls up 2 years ago. They were the only teams really getting any 9.0 and above.
The judging was really really really tough. No points were given away that's for sure. you know how it is you can usually figure out a range of what a routine was going to get but not here - all the parents in my gym had open mouths as scores were posted not being able to figure out what the heck the deductions were for. Oh well the girls had a good weekend in DC just the same even though they were disapointed in their scores.
My DD did ok she placed 3rd on bars with an 8.35 - yes that low score was 3rd - that lets you know how hard the scoring was. Over all she came in 8th with a 33.20 again a score that would never have placed at any other meet I've been to.
Anyway DD loved staying an extra few days to see the DC sites. She loves museums etc but her favorite was going to Georgetown Cupcakes!! Yup the cupcake place from TLC's DC Cupcakes!! MMMMMM They were great but very expensive cupcakes at about $4 each!! She loves that show and it was like seeing the holy grail for her.
Over all a great trip.
