last couple of games with irlandesas..

the last 3 games we have played, 2 have been at home and one on the road. last sunday we played at home and we lost... but it was a very win-able game. then with just a day in between we traveled to Huelva which is at the bottom of Spain. this is one out of the 3 road games that we will fly. so on monday night we we fly into a town near to Huelva called Sevilla. while we boarding the plane i saw a younger group of  people with navy blue passports.. ding ding ding.. AMERICANS! i told sam to look and we both ended up just enjoying them speaking english, i know sounds kinda creepy, but it wasn't. we ended up chatting with them a bit, and they all 4 are students in Sevilla. once on the plane sam and i were very excited to enjoy a soft drink during the short 1 hr and 5 min flight to Sevilla... soon to find out you have to pay for a soda or juice...seriously in Europe they don't give you a complimentary drink or snack... pretty disappointed about that. finally to the hotel in Sevilla they had dinner waiting for us at yes 11pm.

the next morning we had breakfast at the hotel and then got on our short bus and took the 1 hr ride to Huelva to play an 11:30 am game. we lost, another game that we could have won.

after the game we headed to the airport we had a flight that evening. well the whole team was very excited about going to eat at McDonalds! let me just say the menu is very different than the ones we have in the states, not that i go that often... plus they serve beer lol. 

the team eating

salad.. not that great

only 2 sizes of drinks..no large or extra large

once we got to the airport... we thought we only had to wait and a couple hours until we would board the plane..wrong! the flight was delayed like 6 hours! the reason: NO PLANE. I'm not sure how that works but in Spain it can happen i guess. finally got home at a nice & early 1:30am.

the game tonight we won finally! we really needed a win it has been a while... the team we played wasn't awful but not a good 3 point shooting team. we play again next sunday.. so another long week of practice!
