Free Beers & Cards

Flight delayed again until 9ish... They tried a new part in the plane but it didn't work. So now they are flying in a new part.

We decided to take advantage of free beer in the Sky Club and play some Presidents and Assholes.

Nothing like starting a trip off with a delayed flight due to an oil leak in the engine. However, we did get to spend some quality time in the Delta Sky Club for some food and drink. Hopefully we will get out of the US in time to make our connecting flight from Paris to Malaga.

That is all for now!

Hello Everyone.

Welcome to my first blog ever. Since I am losing my blog virginity, please let me know if there is anything I can do different to make your time reading this more enjoyable.


For those of you who don't know, my curling team and I are traveling to Granada, Spain to represent the US at the 2015 Winter World University Games! The team consists of our skip Stephen Dropkin, third Blake Morton, second Kyle Kalela, myself at lead, fifth Calvin Weber, and coach Keith Dropkin. Stephen, Blake, and Calvin have competed in this event before. For Kyle and I, it will be our first time. The Winter World University Games is basically a winter Olympics for college athletes. Check the link for more info on the event.

Today is the day we fly out and start our journey to Granada! We will arrive some time tomorrow and then have a few days before the competition actually starts.  Our first game isn't until Thursday, so we have a couple days to get acclimated. The full schedule can be found here, just click 'Curling' in the list of sports.

I'm not sure how often I will be able to or want to post, but I'll see what I can do! I will also be posting on Facebook and/or Twitter so follow along!

Time to finish packing and eat some breakfast.


You stay classy USA!
