Hey gang,
Last entry for 2015 Stars 'n Stripes International Soccer Tour.
Always a long travel day as we fly back home. We had a small scare at Copenhagen as we arrive a little late as our bus driver took a nice break at a rest area and although better safe than sorry, it was tight departure.
And then we have a delay in security and forced 5 of us to run to our gate, we were about 2 minutes shy of having a small group depart on a later flight. It worked out and I am so grateful!!!!
Easy transfer in Frankfort and then a long 10 hour flight home.
Kids slept, watched movies, shared snap chat info, etc, as we are getting to close to home.
DFW arrival goes without a hitch as no delays in customs and no lost bags, yipppeeee.
It was nice to get a greeting from our families as we exited the terminal and hugs and kisses around.
Had a few kids transfer to other airlines as they were still not home but happy to report that all SnS kids are home safe. So that makes me 28 for 28 in years of not losing a player. Not a bad record, LOL.
Great tour, great staff, great kids, great memories and I am exhausted so always a good sign of a great tour.
Thanks to all for reading this and work begins soon on 2016.
Best of luck in your soccer endeavors and be safe,
Yours in Soccer,
Coach Ed
