Old Post

Found one of my old post from several weeks ago. Figured I might as well post it too so here it is!

We played in another pre season tournament a few weeks ago. We played very inconsistent but ended up taking second in the tournament. Still continuing to train twice a day and if we do not play we have the weekends off. I am blessed to have nice teammates that take me places so I can be a tourist! I was able to go to a festival in a town about twenty minutes away called Skalica. It was a great experience! My teammate Veronika made me try a “typical Slovak burger”. It was good but nothing like my uncle bricks burgers!! Also tried a cake that is only made in that town and of course after trying it I had to buy one! One of my favorite things I got to try was a honey whiskey. Guess that is the southern coming out in me 🙂

Trying the Honey Whiskey with my teammate Veronika.

The weekend after the festival I went to my teammates house in the hills here in Senica. There were a bunch of small houses, stacked close to each other, up a very big hill. Each house had its own garden and area to sit outside and cook out or entertain guest. I loved it!! The view was ridiculous. I can not even begin to explain how amazing it was and the pictures of course do not do it justice. I ended up taking home some fresh fruits and vegetables too so that was an added bonus.
