http://wvba-brazil2010.blogspot.com/2010/08/my-first-days-in-brazil-and-meeting-our.html
Thursday, August 5, 2010. My First Days in Brazil and Meeting our Host Family. As I write this I happen to be laying in the sun at Minas Tênis Clube in Belo Horizonte, Brazil! It is so amazing here and I would love to tell you all about it but my job is to tell you about the lovely time we spent in Recife. It was a long, exhausting but amazing day and it was insane how much we were able to experience. I can’t wait to see what the rest of this trip has to bring us. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

WVBA Brazil 2010: First Day of Tournament
http://wvba-brazil2010.blogspot.com/2010/08/first-day-of-tournament.html
Tuesday, August 10, 2010. First Day of Tournament. Each team was called up one by one to line up on the court and carried their signs. Our national anthem started playing and I was so excited because I didn’t have to sing! After dinner Bruna, Cami and I all went into our room and made bracelets while listening to music. Then Bruna’s brother Manuel came home and he played his guitar for us! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 100809 Day 9 (Curimim). 2009 WVBA Brazil Trip. 2007 WVBA Brazil Trip.

WVBA Brazil 2010: August 2010
http://wvba-brazil2010.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 13, 2010. Last Day and Final Reflections. By the time 5:00 a.m had rolled around, each of us was awake putting finishing touches on getting our things together and placing our luggage by the door. It hadn’t really hit me that we would really be leaving until I saw those four huge suitcases resting by the door and a formerly messy room now empty. Luiz, Patricia, Manuel, Luiza, and Bruna mean the world to me and I will never ever forget them. They have a special place in my heart. The train ...

WVBA Brazil 2010: We All Made it to Brazil Safely
http://wvba-brazil2010.blogspot.com/2010/08/we-all-made-it-to-brazil-safely.html
Tuesday, August 3, 2010. We All Made it to Brazil Safely. We have been in Brazil since early Monday morning. We spent the past two days in the beautiful sandy beaches near Recife in NE Brazil. We were unlucky with the weather, but still had a fabulous time there. We did not have any access to the Internet at the beach house so we will begin to catch up with our postings and photo galleries now that we are in Belo Horizonte and have regular Internet access.

WVBA Brazil 2010: July 2010
http://wvba-brazil2010.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 31, 2010. We enjoyed our last practice Friday night. Herbie Passport. Came along to watch and Hannah Christie helped us with her setting and blocking prowess. We are getting pretty excited now, packing today and meeting at the airport at O-Dark-thirty. Our route is a bit circuitous as we connect through Chicago and then onto Miami before heading south to Salvador and finally our first destination of Recife 21 hours after leaving Seattle. While we are in Belo Horizonte we will be visiting t...

WVBA Brazil 2010: Final Days in Belo Horizonte
http://wvba-brazil2010.blogspot.com/2010/08/melina-81010-monday-morning-was.html
Wednesday, August 11, 2010. Final Days in Belo Horizonte. Monday morning was a depressing morning. We only had two days left with our host, my host sister left for the rest our time to play for her high school team out of town. It was so sad saying goodbye to Julia early; Kaitlin and I were almost in tears saying goodbye to her and our other new friends leaving, like Natalia. Monday night Jade, Miah, Lara, Taylor, Kaitlin, and I had a movie night. We chose to watch a movie on Jade’s laptop, whi...That...

WVBA Brazil 2010: Travel to and My First Impression of Brazil
http://wvba-brazil2010.blogspot.com/2010/08/travel-to-and-my-first-impression-of.html
Thursday, August 5, 2010. Travel to and My First Impression of Brazil. Yesterday we spent about 17 hours sitting on a plane slowly counting down the hours left until our arrival in Brazil. When we landed in Chicago 30 minutes late we had to rush down to our next flight just to find out that the overhead storage areas were full! The long 11-hour flight to Brazil was the perfect opportunity for some sleep so obviously we took advantage. After trying all those different foods we went down to the beach to sw...
