Leaving Cali Was Hard, Catching Up On The Last Few Weeks #1

Leaving Cali Was Hard: I am back home and settled back in after I slept in until 1pm today. I've been catching up on all the good stuff that's on the internet, and here's some good and critical world championships reading for you; Worlds 2007, the balance.

All of my world championships videos can be found here. What I will do at a later date is take all my videos and entries and put them on one page for you. That will clear up the right side of SSW.

One of the skaters that I met was Israel's Boaz Arad. Stop by his blog and you'll see that he posted the senior men's marathon results. I was looking at the senior men's marathon results and it seems that they forgot me! I should be somewhere around 35th place. Ah well.

This one's pretty cool; August 20-26 MSNBC This Week In Sports Pictures. Good picture eh?


Leaving Cali was hard- there was some sort of transit or truck strike and all sorts of trucks blocked bridges all around our hostel. The Santa Rita Hostel staff helped Morgane, Martine, and I carry our luggage through the maze of jammed pedestrian, bike, and motorbike traffic to get a cab. We made it to where traffic was flowing and managed to get a cab and rushed to the airport. Leaving Cali was hard...


Before leaving, we got a group shot of the Santa Rita Hostel staff with Morgane and I
