Howdy!
Made it to Coimbra, Portugal after 2,3 days I'd traveling. I'm not very good at counting hours but we left at 1.30 on thursday and arrived at 3 on Friday - add in the time differences - and that makes for a lengthy trip. I traveled with the american team from Washington d.c and we all wore our track suits. We all had to wear our tracksuits, luckily enough my tracksuit is blue and red as well so I didn't stand out too much. But I'm sure was still the oddest looking person on the flight because I had white compression sock leggings. It was too hot to wear sweats so I has on my shorts. And so if you hear any stories of a girl wearing Navy blue Track top and shorts as well as white stockings wandering around the airport - that was probably me. Now that I think about it - I kind of looked like a medieval girl dressed up as a prince!!
Safely landed in portugal without any problems - it was sunny and warm but not hot when we arrived. Then we took a 2 hour bus ride from the airport to the hotel. I somehow managed to stay awake and got to see a lOt of the beautiful countryside. The best way to describe it is to say that it looked like a cross between a Wisconsin countryside and an Italian countryside( from the movies I've seen)- rolling hills blue skies, and plenty of farm land . I love how all the houses are Red roofs and white siding!!
