BARCELONA, 4th June 2014 – Let’s start with “LEARNING SPANISH WITH PETER” at this time.

Tapa is Spanish and means “niblet”. Matching we finished with an amount of niblets yesterday night. You can find the best Tapas – warm and cold – all over the city in the restaurant “telefèric”. No matter if octopus or steak everything tastes delicious. The service (a cute waitress) is very good and this address could be recommended: Placa Doctor Letamendi 27. This was the culmination for our long day.

Today I was able to talk pleasant with a competitor and we were able to discuss suppliers and innovations. They think about a kind of ICE IRON as well. That’s why we could shortly talk about technical details.

Even FIS-president Gian Franco Kasper, who vividly recalls our last conversation in Zürich, is concerning with our folders. The FIS-committee for Nordic combined afforded us the opportunity the present our products by our image-trailer as the ski jumpers did the day before. Our trailer acquired vogue again and I’m especially glad about the big hand even the new president of the German ski association Dr. Franz Steinle joined.

Sometimes a day my paths cross with “my president”! For a member of the Ski Club Partenkirchen it’s an honor for me to spend time with Michael Maurer. Since 2007 he is the president of the club from Bavaria. He traveled to a FIS-congress for the fourth time. “Nowhere else you can find so many representatives and friends of the ski sport you can share experience with” meant Mr. Maurer. He supports that the four hill tournament will start on Sunday 28th December. “That’s a great thing! You have to see the whole tournament. For athletes and everybody involved two spare days between competition in Oberstdorf and qualification in Garmisch-Partenkirchen will make it possible to start more relaxed into the second competition.”

The solving from yesterdays “LEARNING SPANISH WITH PETER” is: „deporte de invierno“. Birgit Bubner won the book „Spuren des Erfolgs“ – please contact us via personal message on facebook and send your postal adress!
