However, she almost rmissed the tournament, Her first match was in Carlsbad, California, so her agent booked a seat for her and gave her the ticket to Carlsbad. It was a long trip because Bojana needed to take three different planes. \When she finally arrived in Carlsbad, she was surprised to find that the airport was empty. She waited for 15 minutes and then called Tournament Transportation. The problem was that Bojana ‘was in Carlsbad, New Mexico and the transportation service was in Carlsbad, California where the tournament was. So, Bojana stayed in New Mexico for ‘the night and then traveled to Carlsbad, California the next morning. She arrived only 30 minutes before the start of her match with the Italian player Roberta Vinci, Unfortunately, the day finished badly for Bojana because she| lost the match 3-6, 6-4, 6-1.

Many quests say that they have seen ghosts. A businessman who stayed at the hotel said that when he looked out of the window, he saw hundreds of Roman soldiers marching. Infact, in Roman times ‘there was a road that passed through the grounds of Maesmawr Hall. Other guests said they saw the hosts ofthe Davies sisters who owned the hotel in the 1900s, and the ghost of an old housekeeper ‘walking through a wall in the hall. But perhaps most frightening is the story that the ghost of an evil man named Robin Drwg haunts the woods around the hotel. Some people say that they have seen this ghost suddenly change into the shape of a bull. Maesmawr was on a TV show about houses with ghosts called Most Haunted. The TV show hosts and investigators from the Mid Wales Paranormal (MWP) reported a lot of strange activity inthe hall ~ seeing balls of light, Feeling movements, and hearing unusual sounds, During the investigation, the floor in one of the upstairs rooms moved. The hotel's current owner, Nigel Humphryson, says he often hears voices and banging noises that he cannot explain. So if you're interested in ghosts, why not stay here?
