A 24-hour flight???!!!


Today is the scheduled travel day to Greece, which should mean that it's a boring day. But the guys found ways to make a boring day great!

First, Avery Long showed us the latest fashion in soccer shorts:

Then, we had a light training session after practice, including an introduction to some new stretches:

Then, we spent an hour in line with our friends on the swim team while waiting to check in for the military mobile command flight that will take us to Greece:

Then, Goalkeeper Alan Hill found more food (he has a real talent for this):

Now, the team is awaiting its flight, scheduled for 7pm. The next posting will come from Rhodes, but our current schedule doesn't have us landing there until almost 3pm Greece time tomorrow! After a 24-hour trip, the team will relax on Monday, but we'll post some more photos from the trip tomorrow night!

Finally, the team would like to wish all their dads a Happy Father's Day. In addition, we don't want to forget the moms! We would like to ask you to visit the Proctor and Gamble Facebook "Thank You Mom" page. P&G will donate one dollar to Special Olympics for every visit to this page, from today until the end of the World Games. The company is a title sponsor for Team USA, and you should check out their awesome commercial about World Games athlete Molly Hinka. We met Molly yesterday!
