Today we trained up in the mountains and it was a little bit of change to be in the middle of a training session and be able to look up at a mountain range. We trained on a new turf field when I say new I mean new we were the first team to play on it ever, this event was enough to get the mayor of the town we were in, the president of the local soccer club, and a photographer out for a photo shoot. After our photo shoot we headed back to Como for a cruise to the town Bellagio. The trip there was very pretty, we went past George Clooney's house some of the guys got good photos. It was a long cruise and we were out in the sun so a couple of us got a little burnt but everyone is still alive so its ok and it was worth it. Bellagio was a bit touristy but hey we are tourists, it was a great spot for food and gellato. After lunch we got back on a much faster boat on which many of us fell asleep. We then had some free time, dinner, and then a chance to explore Como a little more.
