22 July 2012
July 22nd - long transfer today, midnight ferry, arrive 3:30 am, lug our luggage around, 45 minute bus ride, sort out our mattresses, pillows, linens, rooms, etc, and finally get to sleep at 5 am. We let all sleep in until noon, which was awesome.
A quick trip to the grocery store, 4 pm training, dinner, and movie night tonight as Dom set up his laptop so all the boys can chill out and relax.
We are excited about Dana Cup, all grass fields and all are in great shape.
Dana Cup is a little smaller than Gothia with about 800 teams and 32 countries, still a pretty big event. Nice people and they are excited to have Stars 'n Stripes back. first time back in 12 years so we are all excited.
Boys all called home, I think, and phones back in my possession. We are licking our wounds, getting some much needed rest, and preparing for the cup games that start on Tuesday.
Hi to all,
Speak more tomorrow
Ciao
