More from the World Games

We've had our event now. It was an amazing competition on spectacular walls.

Disappointingly, we both didn't climb as well as we would have liked. But, we did make it here and have really enjoyed climbing with the best climbers in the world. Carlie finished 9th in Lead and 11th in Speed. I finished 10th.

The finals were spectacular. The lead event was won by Japanese climber Sachi Amna in the Men's and Maya Vidmar from Slovenia in the Women's.

The rest of the Games was a lot of fun for us too. With our climbing finished we could go and watch other sports. We saw the Aussie parachutists in action. They won bronze!

We also got to cheer on the Aussie Ultimate Frisbee team as they won a bronze medal in the main stadium.

And, we watched some amazing Acrobatic Gymnasts.

It's been an amazing experience. I can't wait to see you all on Tuesday. Enjoy the rest of your holiday.
