And just like that

And just like that... its over. You know when you go on that awesome ride at wonderland and then it just ends? Or when you get to have the BEST time with a friend and then they have to go home? Or better yet, going to Europe with a bunch of friends, training your collective asses off together, sight-seeing together, climbing mountains, swimming, laughing and crying with each other, you know, generally having an awesome time.



Danke to our german host Dieter!



But we have pictures, videos, and some phenomenal memories. The wrestling technique is great and all but the friendships are the best. Climbing mountains. Comparing blisters. Lieutenant Dan. Chris's dress up birthday. Where do we begin?



Here we are in Paris, totally exhausted as our plane gets delayed another half hour but all we can do is smile. What a ridiculously good experience. I love the bonds that have been created between Matmen and Mariposa and look forward to waching these friendships continue over the years.

Thanks moms and dads. Thanks grandparents. Thanks coaches Ivan, Bob and Capp for making this happen. Nobody here will ever forget it!
