White elephants & blue swiss balls
Yesterday was only the 6th day of the race and yet it feels forever long already. Long races, long transfers and some stressful finishes.
Let me give you an idea as to the state of Julian and yours truly. Yesterday, we packed our bags as always and got ready for the race. We made a clean sweep of the room and made sure that we weren’t leaving anything behind. JD even looked underneath the beds. Then, upon arriving at the hotel here 500 km away, we realized that we left a white elephant in the room. A 65 cm blue swiss ball!
Phone chargers? OK. But a swiss ball? We need some sleep.

Can tell you a story about my little brother (JD) one day when he was about 5 or so we were fitting over a marble he wanted it so much he put it in his mouth and it was never seen again. He is a lot bigger now but I don,t think he could fit a swiss ball in his mouth but you might want to cheak.
White Elephants can hide themselves very good against white wallpaper. And you guys should know that a big swiss ball don’t fit underneath a bed!!
