Today we headed to Switzerland for the second time. First, we stopped in Lugano to watch the Lugano team practice, we were suppose to watch another team later in the week but that got cancelled and we ended up making plans to watch the Lugano team practice. It was cool to see a professional team doing the same drills we do but so much better. Later we made our way to Bellinzona deeper in Switzerland, where the mountains got higher and even more beautiful. The town of Bellinzona was an interesting town because of its location at the mouth of an alpine pass that leads to northern Europe, it built three castles to defend itself. Isabella decided to take us to one of them. We were free to roam the castle something we would not be able to do in the states, this was some peoples favorite part of the trip so far. We then had lunch and free time in Bellinzona before we made our way back to Italy for our second game. We still didn't have the best result but we played much better then the game before. After the game we made our way back to our hotel for our last dinnerand night in Como, tomorrow we head to a new city and a new hotel.
