So to update everyone on where I am, I'm not in Cardiff Wales anymore with the national team, thats done until january. I am now currently in Sicily, Italy and loving it I might add. I'm in a little town called Ribera, which is about 1 and a half hours out of Palermo. This will be my home til april/may next year and so far everything has been pretty good. The team have been really good so far, I was able to go back home to Melbourne for a few days after national team duties, and get a few days of rest and then back to it all.
So far we've played two Euro cup games, which we won, and that got us into the European competition. So we'll play two games a week now, one for the European competition, and one for the Italian league. We also played our first game for the Italian league, which was in Rome. We were expected to lose and sure enough we pulled off an upset, which put us all in great moods. Instead of flying straight back to Ribera a few of us chose to stay for two extra nights. We got to see some amazing sights in Rome and it was well worth all of the walking we did!!!! I will give a more detailed update at a later date, and maybe a few pics too :)
Alrighty well its time to take off again, but I will update again hopefully very very soon :)
