Thank you, Vania and Alexandra! I can't wait ...

I just found some awesome photos!!! Some of the captions were hilarious though...



"Crouching Staviski, Hidden Screen"





Haha...I hope you enjoy these photos!!

Thanks, Lyra! But... I think these photos have already all been posted.

Don't really care... I just felt the need to post them just in case... My twisted mind is at work once more...

Hi everyone! This is my first post here and I know it's very late, but I went to Skate America and was very impressed with Albena & Maxim's fans! I don't know if they belong to this forum, but there were two women there who were absolutely crazy about them and dressed up in the colors of the flag at every competition and practice! It was great. They're lucky to have such great fans!

I see this thread is already very long, and someone already found my Flickr page and posted it, but I wanted to give you all some more photos (where Albena isn't bleeding!):
http://www.flickr.com/photos/kolasinski

I would've posted more but my free Flickr account only allows me to upload a few each month! Maybe next month...

Some quick details I also thought you might be interested in -
The Hartford Hilton that we were staying in had a small fire Saturday morning at 6:00 a.m. Everyone had to evacuate (including skaters!) and I saw Maxim hanging out with Sasha Zaretski while waiting to get back inside. Didn't notice where Albena was.

The crash with the Kerrs at Saturday's practice didn't seem to slow them down one bit - they're tough! Albena kept touching her leg, but I didn't even realize Maxim was injured until I read it here. Later it looked like the Kerrs might have cut them off during the FD warmup (or at least skated a bit too close before turning), and Albena just looked at Max and shook her head. Also, the Gordeeva, Kulik, & Petrenko families were watching their FD, along with some of the other competitors.

On Sunday, Albena practiced for the exhibtion alone (I'm guessing so Maxim could rest his hip). I have a few pictures of her skating by herself then. Their exhibition was very energetic and they didn't seem at all injured.

Obviously this report is very late (sorry!) but I hope you enjoy the photos. And I agree with everyone who likes Fabian Bourzat! WOW! hehe


Kristen

Unfortunately those women don't write on this forum, but I understand who are you talking about! I saw them at WC in Moscow and they are often shown on TV Albena admires them very much she told that those women couldn't find a bulgarian flag to buy in the States, so they just bought some red, green & white material and made the flags, the jackets, the caps themselves! Albena & Max have many somewhat crazy, somewhat talented & creative fans!

It's normal they have very warm relations with Zaretskis, with the whole family The father of Zarestkis even posted here last year =)
