Day 2 CEESA Robotics Bulgaria - Final Results

We had a great final day of the Robotics Tournament in Sofia! 

Our Sparkybots teams put all that they had into the challenges of the day. Both teams demonstrated tremendous teamwork and perseverance. At the end of the day it was one of the Sparkybots teams that had a chance to compete with the final 8 teams. 

This group of boys made it all the way to the semifinal round where they lost by only a couple millimeters. Overall, our Sparkybots2 team got 3rd place out of 20 teams in the competition in a score that combined teamwork, robot design, oral presentation, and the robot game. 

Congratulations to all boys for all the hard-work and dedication they showed to each other and the team!

Cultural Tour of Sofia - Day 1

After some morning robot preparation, we took some time to tour the center of Sofia for a cultural tour.

AISB students were actively involved in the tour answering many of the tour guide questions about religion and architecture and winning Bulgarian "Onion" Candy.  You will have to ask them more about that.

The weather has been very nice and team spirits are high as we head into our afternoon practice rounds. Don't forget to check out the live stream if you have a chance.
