Hiya!
I went to Wimbledon last week (for the tennis, of course) with my friends!
I know I'm so late with uploading, but I just never had the chance to properly sit down and write about it, and then later I did more stuff so it got pushed back even more.
Anyway, it was really exciting, though we queued from 3 pm to 6:30 pm, of which two whole hours was spent in the glaring sun (I got a sticker to prove it!). We stuck out umbrellas and annoyed everyone around us by poking them in their backs every time we moved. The pastas we had bought for dinner also exploded, so there was oil and tomato sauce everywhere. It was a mess.
Once we got in, we checked out some of the open courts which we didn't need to queue for, but us being short, we couldn't really see anything.
So then we went to court 3, where Madison Keys was playing against Stefanie Voegele. It was good, quite close, though I think Keys was a tad more powerful and so ended up winning. Sadly I didn't watch the end, as their match went on until almost 10 pm, so had to be suspended until the next day or whenever.
On a side note, the ball girls and boys are so cute! They're adorably stiff and emotionless but as soon as they need to move they're so quick!
We finished off our trip by going to Henman Hill briefly, where we awkwardly sat between the legs of those sitting on the picnic tables on either side.
Wimbledon was fun. Maybe not the queuing, but I guess that was just part of the experience. We got a feel for the 'atmosphere', sat on Henman Hill and walked alongside thousands to the train station at the end of the day.
❤️
I love y'all
Goodbye!
