It is now 8:30am local time (2:30am EST) and we are letting the girls sleep in today to about 9am. They have had two very intense training days. The days started with an 8am breakfast, training, a break, lunch, a break, training, break, dinner and then games against local Holland Premier Clubs.
After breakfast this morning, we pack and load on the bus for a 10:30 departure for our next location - Maastricht where the boys have been since Sunday. Today is an off day to let the girls bodies rebuild and a day for all of us to visit another beautiful part of the country. We will be touring the city and spending a few hours "scavenger hunting" throughout the caves under the city. This is one of the highlights that the girls have been speaking about since we landed.
We end up in our new hostel later this afternoon well rested, rejuvenated and ready to train twice a day Thursday and Friday with games in the evenings against local clubs there.
Girls Blog/comments are forthcoming along with photos.
They are all doing quite well and yesterday's game against Bavos was a good effort learning and trying a new formation and the BBQ after the game was fantastic. The Bavos team got on our bus as we were leaving and wanted to come with us and most of the girls exchanged email addresses. the Bavos Club had printed up posters and hung them around town showcasing the upcoming game against "the American's from Vermont". Each girl will get one as a souvenir with a picture of each team and Bavos videotaped the game for us on DVD.

PS: All the posts come up as written by Dan but they are a group effort that we should videotape and turn that into a blog.
