...so it's no surprise that I came back! We decided to have a week of training out west before our next tournament; a NORCECA down in San Diego. The weather has continued to be sunny and clear in Van since I left at the end of August. We've trained almost everyday (sometimes twice!) with Chris Densmore, an awesome coach that has helped us out so much.
On our day off, we decided to hike The Chief in Squamish. Such an incredible view! (You just can't get this in Toronto!)

Kits Beach was pretty quiet this week, now that summer is winding down, so it felt like we had the place to ourselves. The week of intense training was much needed. I think it successfully set us up for the NORCECA.
We're in California now and loving it! We played our first pool play match against a US team yesterday (W 21-11, 21-14) and we have two games today. The venue is pretty incredible, it's an Olympic Training Centre for many different sports and it has housing and food and laundry on site. Not to mention a sweet athlete lounge with pool tables, xbox, computers and board games. Our moms also decided to come down and watch the tournament, so we have a cheering section too!
Our next game is against Guatemala this afternoon. Let's keep it rolling!
