Day 3 - More Training and Team Building

At the restaurant, Don Francisco and his entourage showed up. He is the "Jonny Carson" of Latin America. Apparently cheezy but very famous. He greeted all of us.

Team dinner at a nice Italian restaurant near the hotel. Loading up on carbs before game day.

The ceremonial "Coaches Meeting." We were told there were several heated arguements about the rules, scheduling and the field assigments.

Got up this morning around 8am. I'm finally caught up on my sleep and over the jet lag. Breakfast and sitting around chatting till 10, then stretching in the lobby waiting for a bus till 11 and off to the practice fields. We had a strong training session from 12:30-2:30 and are ready to play England tomorrow morning. We meet as a team for dinner tonight at 7:30 and then an early night, hopefully sleeping by 10:30. 6am wake-up tomorrow, 7am bus and kick-off at 9am.
