Today we woke up at 7:30 am. We ate a light
breakfast in our room. After, went to the Wide World of
Sports Complex to practice for an hour. We then rushed to the
hotel and got ready for the player luncheon. The player
luncheon lasted for a few hours. During the afternoon we
relaxed in our rooms and gave massages while watching
television. We went to dinner Golden Coral (a steak buffet).
We came back and our coach Larry gave us an inspirational
speech to get us P U M P E D for the game. Then we went to
bed.

Today we woke up early and got ready to go to
practice at the Wide World of Sports Complex. There we
practiced intensely and sweating profusely in the hot, humid
air. After practice, we drove back to the hotel and ate lunch
at Downtown Disney. After lunch, we took a dip in the pool.
Then we had a lot of free time to ourselves. Dinner was at
Buca di Beppo. After a good meal, our team had a quick
meeting and then it was lights out.

It all started with getting up at 8:00 am and
going to a totally killer workout in the wonderful humidity
and the blazing sun in our faces. We played for 2 hours
working on getting used to the atmosphere. I must say I was
exhausted at the end of the practice. We all gave it what we
could but in the back of our minds all we could think
about
was going to Disney World later on that day. After we cooled
down and ate some lunch we headed back to the hotel to get
cleaned up & go to the Magic Kingdom!!!!! We went down to the
bus that would take us to our destination. When we got there
the girls and Larry were all smiles. It really is the
happiest place on earth :. The first ride we hit was Splash
Mountain because it was freakin' hot. The ride was killer, I
loved it! Then we caught up with the parents & Larry to head
over to Thunder Mountain, don't worry, the ride is much better
in California. The day kept getting better! The rides we
encountered were The Haunted Mansion, It's a Small World and
the Buzz Lightyear ride. All in all, the best ride was Space
Mountain, it was so awesome. They have the unexpected drops &
it was the coolest. We also got to watch the Princess Show
and take pictures with Pinocchio & Gepeto. We loved Disney
World but not as much as spending time with our superest
friends & team mates. Wish all you guys @ home could be here.

We
woke up at 3 am in the morning, with only 2 or 3 hours of
sleep, to drive to LAX and we were all excited to go to
Florida
. We arrived at the airport 2 hours early. There
wasn’t anything to do but to sit, listen to I-pods and talk.
We boarded the plane in a group and luckily we all got to sit
together.
On
the plane some people watched movies and gathered around our
coach, Larry, to watch some soccer clips. And then,
there were the people obsessed with Harry Potter.
Our
3 hour flight to
Houston
seemed like 3 days because we were all tired and weren’t
allowed to sleep. Our coach wanted us to acclimate to
the new time zone, but some people couldn’t resist and fell
asleep. Finally, after another 2 hours, we arrived in
Florida
and immediately realized the humidity and the heat. When we
arrived at the hotel, we dropped our bags off and went to
dinner at Sweet Tomatoes. After dinner, we went to
“Winn Dixie” to buy some groceries and then returned to
the hotel.
After
a team meeting in our coach, Larry’s room, we were finally
able to go to sleep after a VERY long and eventful day.
