Finnlandia Trophy 2011 - 2° day

Today we had practice in the afternoon, so the day started well, we slept long and had a nice breakfast.
The whole day the weather was bad, it was raining, so we went with our coach Barbara Fusar Poli and our Italian friends and training mates, Charlene Guignard and Marco Fabbri to the nearest shopping center.
In the hospital with our coach, Barbara Fusar Poli and Stefano
Before our practice time we had the opportunity to watch other groups including Tessa Virtue/ Scott Moir, which was pretty nice because we were in the last group with an Austrian, Ukrainian and Russian couple.
Our training has started well but when we had the music on during our short dance and we were doing twizzles, a little bit maybe too near to each other, at some point while Stefano was grapping his leg he cut mine... My feeling was like a kind of “scratch” so I finished the piece and looked at what happened. Unfortunately I realized the cut was very deep and long and it was bleeding a lot so we had to go straight to the nearest hospital. In the hospital they sewn the wound on my leg with seven stitches... and I could go back to the hotel straight away. I hope it will not hurt a lot tomorrow and we can continue the competition.
