Getting closer now...

Well we have our first big game coming up and we've been on court starting to prepare for our first Eurobasket game.  We got back to our home base the Celtic Manor on Thursday night, and we spent Friday recovering from a very long week.  Some players took the opportunity to take off and visit family for the day, while others stayed at the hotel and enjoyed a nice relaxing day, with a massage thrown in there too!!!  I might throw in there, that my roomie, Harriet, and I watched the opening ceremony for the Olympics.  It gave us a real giddy and nervous feeling to think that in four years, hopefully that will be us!!!  :)

Saturday we hit the court, back to our normal schedule of practice and started making a few adjustments for our upcoming game against the Ukraine.  Speaking of the Ukraine, this will be my first time going there, so i get to add another country to my list of countries I've travelled too!!  We'll be heading out early Tuesday morning, so the blog might be a bit outdated for a few days until I get back.  It all just depends on whether we get Internet access over there.

Oh yeh and a big shout out to all the Mornington Breakers Big V girls back home.  Big congrats on handling Darebin in the semi's.  Now its time to take care of business and finish the season off on the right note.  Don't go in under estimating Melton, expect to have a fight on your hands, but don't let that scare you.  You guys are the better team, and I'm expecting game reports consisting of W's!!!!!  So good luck to you all, play hard and enjoy the moment :)

Ok well I'm off to nap, so until next time, stay safe, be good and keep on smiling  :)
