And finally ... here they are, home again!

Whilst waiting for them


He's not bluffing - it's his duty

Denis and Jože took care that all of the guests had their place at the table...

...while the guests were gathering...
Mr. Taras Poljanec and Mrs. ZoraTomič...

Janez Kocijančič and  Miro Cerar

and all together

Press conference can begin

...they're all there

First words of welcome came from Mr. Jože Okoren
 

Since there wasn't enough room for all our team at the table, medallists only were given the spot

Ernest still couldn't believe there were so many of us there

Branko, whilst telling the best paart of his short speech: "...we were breathing like we were a family!"

Medals line up! Only Franjo couldn't get into picture.

Helena was very thirsty.

All the "chiefs" gathered

but none of them acting as a real chief!

	Gorazd came out first through the door we were all starring at ...		... while Erlend took second place.
	Sašo and Andreja coming out together as a team - and Sašo took care of her luggage. If he let her come out first, he would have been gentleman "par excellence"		When Bruno came out, there was such a crowd in front of him ...
	... that he had to stay there for quite a while, and Boštjan had to stop behind him		Was anybody expecting anything else than her smiling face?
	Ernest also couldn't believe there were so many of us waiting for them		Boštjan and 18 years + 1 day old friend Zlatko were not very sure what's all the folks doing there
	Goran acted quite seriously, while Polona couldn't help herself and played a part of her "normal" role		Igor welcoming our athletic coach Goran
	Janez also seemed to be pleasantly surprised with the crowd		... and just a moment later he was even more surprised, when Marko used his siren
	Nobody expected Helena to come out without her "raglja"...		.. and nobody expected her not to try it out if it still works!
	...only we couldn't hear what they were whispering behind the bunch		The first goal-scorer of the Paralympics Ivan (in front) and his team mate Igor
	Srečko let Polona go first,		Branko was informed there were many of us waiting outside - but still he looks surprised
	... as if he doesn't trust Danica, he watches what she is doing		Franjo started laughing in Sydney - and he cannot stop!
	He was a bit more concerned when Igor became curious about his medal - looks like  Franjo doesn't trust him		Our second to come out medallist Ančo also couldn't live without his popular "raglja"

Our Paralympic heroes arrived to Brnik by the schedule and though there was a long journey behind, none of them seemed to be too tired to share their joy with friends and relatives

Our marathoner Marko Sever's fans were there as well and they were the loudest group of all - although they had to come from Ajdovščina (some 100 km).

Representatives of our national Olympic Committee  (mag. Janez Kocjančič, Tjaša Andree-Prosenc and Miro Cerar) and a member of our Ministry of education and sports (dr. Alex Leo Vest) also came to greet our team, as well as many representatives of our national organizations for the disabled.

	Crowd gathering around Dragica		And so does Janez! waving to all of us at once
	Heroes of all the heroes - the medal winners		There was no chance of taking picture of all four of them at the same time...
	... no surprise - somebody had to be "cut off"		and finally all four of them, smiling and showing their medals ... some of them raising them higher than others
Then we lined them up and made them listen carefully
	Dragica being interviewed - she admits she could have done it better		Ančo looking down at his colleagues - a pose not alike him.
	Franjo took it very seriously - and he also promised to do it even better next time		... but he was only thinking what to tell the press when they ask hm
			World turned around. Who are they applauding to?
	Was Dani's head so heavy or is he just thinking ...?		You never know what's up in her mind!
	Some of the athletes thinking very deeply		Marko was also in the center of attention after his first Paralympic games

While the guests were discussing more or les important matters...

...Marko's fans were loud as they could be

taking care of the appropriate atmosphere for the occasion

When Marko finally came out,

the went crazy!

but neither did Marko wait too much

and he quickly answered with his new "weapon"

I bet he'll remember this moments forever!

A bit surprised when she realized she's been "caught"

Brane couldn't move on, until the "road" was empty

Andreja glad to be on a firm ground after a long journey 

Words of welcome and congratulation coming out of a crowd.
Ladies first, of course...

...and that's why  Janez had to wait a bit for his turn

Zlatko - still "alive" ...

... and then his head went down

while Viki woke up!
