We are working the Sledge Hockey games, our first game was Italia v. Canada, the Canadians won 4-0. These guys are amazing athletes, it's a slower game but it is fun to watch these guys play. The second game Norway beat Sweden 2-1 in a shootout. Norway tied it up late in the third period which led to a five minute over time and the into the shoot out. On Sunday we saw Italia v. Norway, Italia drew first blood scoring in the first period. However late in the third period Norway came back with a vengeance to score 2 goals and win the game. The second game was Canada v. Sweden, where the Canadians went on to beat the Swedes in to oblivion with a score of 10 to 1. There are four other teams that we didn't get the chance to see: USA, Czech Republic, Korea, and Japan. The gold metal game is this coming Saturday.
Our daughter Lauren is along for the trip this time. Her and Ed have managed to take some pretty good shots of the action, we hope you enjoy them. On Saturday Morning I was walking around the locker room areas and one of the players from Canada said hello and introduced himself, I explained what I was doing for the games and he told me what his job was on the team. He was the one to watch, he is a banger he loved to check people and punish them. He is Raymond Grassi #21.
Now that my adventure is over I'm going to get back to my leisurely afternoons of walking my dogs.
