Day 7 - Heidelberg, Germany

May 28, 2007

Our day started out with the longest bus ride of the trip, about six hours. This was probably good because it gave a lot of people a chance to get some well needed rest.

Our long journey landed us in Heidelberg, where we got to check out another castle and wander around town on our own for a little bit.

A few players, probably homesick, managed to find a Subway restaurant and get a small taste of home.

The town of Heidelberg was one of the prettier places we’ve seen on the trip. The houses which were built up the sides of the mountains overlooking the river were quite a site.

After all the sightseeing was done for the day we had our last team dinner in Germany. It was a great way to end our trip with coaches, players, and our trip managers sharing their thoughts and some highlights from the trip.

I think that everyone would agree with me when I say that I have had a blast in Germany, but I’m ready to head home and relax.
