Welcome home everyone! We have now been home for 1 week, and I am sure many of us are missing the luxuries of Italy! We didn't have to go to work, we got our exercise in, walking about 7 miles a day, we could eat gelato all day, we had all of our meals prepared for us everyday, bidays, we hung out with our friends everyday, all day, and we slept in soft, cozy beds :) I am sure that we are happy to be home, because America has some of it's own luxuries. We have ice, Dr. Pepper, Big Gulps, butter, soft bread, normal outlets that don't blow up our expensive appliances, TV in English, fluffy pillows, bigger rooms, and taller shower spouts.
I have heard a lot of good things about the trip, and the overall feeling that everyone had a great time! I will post some of the pictures that the girls have taken, they have some funny pictures. I wanted to give a little shout out to our wonderful tour guide Alissandra. She was so organized and had our days planned out from the moment we woke up til the moment we went to bed. She kept us all in line, and on time. She had an obvious passion and love for her country, and she shared that with us. She would say some of our favorite American phrases, like "Yo-Diggity-Dog" and "Get up off my grill". She helped make this a memorable trip to Italy, and everyone fell in love with her. Thanks Alissandra for everything, you are great, and I know that many of the girls and parents miss you!
We look forward to seeing everyone soon! Check the blog for updates all summer long!

Hey, wait a minute, Dr. Pepper & soft white bread? If you are all serious about being a nationally ranked team every year, better cut out all carbonated drinks, eat whole grain bread and stay away from fast foods! Then you will be first to the ball every time!
