Here Come The Games!
Greetings from Quinhuangdao, China. Were now officially less than 48 hours away from the first US game of the Beijing Olympic Games.
Since we miss the opening ceremonies, at least we have that to look forward to! We have been here since July 25, so we are more than ready to get the games underway.
The staff and coaches have been performing skits to keep the mood light. We were treated to hour foot massages the other day, which was a nice surprise. Since the food isn’t quite what it is at home, we were treated to ice-cream sundaes from good old McDonald’s last night, which made many of us very happy. Its the little things that make all the difference!
One more light day of practice, then we take on Norway on August 6 at 7:45 a.m. on MSNBC. The game will be re-aired on Universal HD at 8 p.m, and then 10:30 later that night.
One down, five to go ’til the Gold! Looking for #2 for my collection. This one will mean a lot more since my playing time will be a little more extensive than the last Olympics! Hope you can find time to cheer us on.
I’ll let you know how the games go. Ciao. -Heather
