Champs!!!

1. just got back from a third day of basketball in Cali and today was the actual tournament, for some pointless reason they had two days of pool play....Page, the organization of the tournament would drive you crazy. After Enelio´s team won we had to wait around for an hour for someone to bring the money (still unsure why the tournament manager didnt keep it). During the games I got to meet Enelio´s professional coach (Coach Moreno) and we talked basketball and some X´s and O´s...he could speak really good English!

(If you look in the background of this picture you can see the lines of the police lined up....unsure why)

2. Last night on the way home from Cali we stopped at a Casino at the bus terminal (Nanny you would have loved it) we gave them a dollar and they gave us around 30 coins to play...Enelio had never been so we just put those coins in and Eneilo hit a jackpot and won us enough money to get home for free....(nanny if he would have bet three coins instead of one we could have took a limo home!)

3. I have begun taking pictures to show my class about the culture of Colombia and I took this one on the highway today on the way to Cali....I had a little time because our bus had to stop for gas!

4. Mom here are some more of my girlfriends....Wallace tell me which one you want me to bring back.......Coach Page, we need to bring your AAU team down here for some games.....



5. Mom I thought you would like to see some more pictures of what I am eating....no worries I´m sure they washed their hands....




6. Showing Griesser and Hundley and Montgomery County some love in Manizales, Colombia!

7. Here is Enelio enjoying our favorite refreshment....its like a super snow cone with fruit and condensed milk...it had so much sugar in it after I got done eating it my head was spinning from the sugar rush! I am still suprised that the only fast food chains I have seen here so far is Domino´s and Dunkin Donuts.....their were a couple of McD´s but apparently the goverment shut them down for selling other white stuff than salt and sugar......
