27th December!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least!!!!!!!
This morning we woke up early because we had to bring the car back, to check in in our Youth hostel in Wellington city and at 12:00 were the registrations.
In the arena were a lot of people. For this UNICON we were more than 650 unicyclists from 23 different countries (in the previous were 1′500 but New-Zealand is expensive for every one). From Switzerland were 22 guys but only five from the french part.
Most people are from Germany, Japan, Denmark, France, USA, South Korea and Switzerland.
Each registered participant received a bag with the program, two drinks, some snacks, the ticket for the final party ;o), T-Shirts of UNICON (number depending or how many you bought) and a wristband.
The arena was now open but not the gym for practicing so we practiced in the entrance’s hall with other people.
Finally in the afternoon arrived the japanese guys!!! But Ryohei an Karan (our friends from Hirosaki were still not here…)
In our Hostel, which is big, were staying lots of unicyclists (many french guys but as well Korean and german.) so there was a nice ambiance everyone spoke with each other and so I rapidly made new friends.
