We had our final practice today before playing our first game of the tournament tomorrow afternoon. Once again, some ominous dark clouds hung around most of the afternoon, but the rain and lightning held off. After practice we returned to the hotel and had dinner. We always have some great desserts with dinner. Tomorrow is game day, so we try to keep our schedule as simple as possible. On game day, after a mid-morning breakfast we will get the guys out of the hotel and go for a short walk around town to stretch their legs, etc...We'll have our pre-game meal around 12:00 and then begin getting players ready for the game (taping ankles, etc...) around 1:30 or so. We will leave on our team bus for the stadium in downtown Toulon around 2:45. Hopefully we will get a win against the turkeys from Turkey!!
Thanks to all of you for the great questions !!
First of all, MLS stands for Major League Soccer, which is the highest level of professional soccer in the United States.
I have seen a number of sites, but I am not sure if I have seen the Roman Cathedral/Church here in Toulon. I'll try to find it and take a picture of it for you.
There are some cheeses here in France that are definitely smelly. But, just because it's smelly doesn't mean that it tastes bad. :)
It sounds like you guys are getting just as much rain as I am here in France. Liam, I'll bet you had a rainout today, right?? I know Jonas did, which always makes him quite disappointed.
It will be tough for you to watch our game tomorrow, which is at 9:30 your time, unless you pretend you have a sudden illness. :)Maybe your parents can record it for you or TiVo it. Anyway, look for me whenever someone gets hurt because that is when I have to run out on the field and tend to them. Actually, hopefully no one will get hurt and I will be able to just stay on the bench and relax!!
