Germany

We arrived in Germany today! And we had the best welcome to Germany ever. On the way to dinner, we took the U Bahn (the equivalent of Marta) and there were thousands of fans going to a soccer game. We found out that it was the equivalent of the German super bowl. Literally thousands of people chanting and shouting different fight songs. The energy was so tangible (as was the heat... it felt like 100 degrees down there!) and it was very exciting to watch. We all had a buddy (shout out to Caleb ) so that if we got lost, we would have someone and also for safety. But this energy was crazy! It was very exhilarating! I'm hoping that energy will transfer to the members of the team as well as myself for the week to come! Can't wait to see what is in store!
