Stavanger


Well, Stavanger came and went, as far as competition. We won our first macth vs. Czech and lost to Georgia! So, now are chances for the Olympics are getting slimmer. The chances are not gone, but are getting away! So, we really need to just finish our FIVB experience with a good attitude and ton of fun!!!!!!!!! Who knows?

On another note, Norway is SOOOOO expensive! Our Subway sandwich cost us $17. And, my coffee was $5. Therefore, we are eating in and grocery shopping, thank goodness we rented a house for the week. We have a cuisine of cultures in this place, so it is much fun. Just a random fact for everyone, my dinner tonight consisted of 2 hot dogs, spaghetti, vanilla cream cookies (6 of them) and 3 pieces of toast. I think it is all under $10........Well, that's all the excitement for now.......But, another cool fact about this place is that it stays light out until midnight!

i was just wondering about your energy levels. could it be that you are starving yourselves out of the game? how do you feel during and after the games? do you have a coach and crew to assist you?
although i have no clear idea how the competition goes, i can just imagine the requirements needed to get to the top of your game. you know how it is...a good arrow with a poor bow will not make the mark. in any case, may the force be with you always...but then, if everyone had the same mantra, who would the gods favor?
