The kids are going crazy over sun, swimming pools and elevators that go up the outside of the building for 50 floors. Calvin and Kent got up at 6 to go swimming before heading over to the Georgia Dome at 7:45. Diego and Tom did not sleep at all and knocked on my door at 6, just 'cuz **they** were up.
The hotel is amazing (she says as she sits on the balcony over the pool typing this post, using the wireless connection here. Downside being I have to stay here to work on a faculty meeting presentation Nate and I have to do on Monday.). Thriftlodge was nothing like this! And the most incredible thing is that Nate got this hotel for the same price as we paid for the Thriftlodge in Portland!
Five arenas. 270 teams. The biggest pit we ever saw. The Dome is amazing. Our first warm up event went OK. Our new wheels arrived this morning at the hotel and we've figured out how to let them go swimming tonight after dinner.
The Boilermakers are living large but thrifty and working hard in Botlanta, thanks to all of you! Keep your fingers crossed tomorrow! The team is here at the finals! Go Boilermakers!
