Yes were are all here! All members of Team USA and Doctor Andy and our loved ones-including George!
This evening was the opening ceremony. I almost cried walking in back of the American Flag. There are 28 countries and around 230 runners. Wow!
Today was a major holiday in Italy-the Italian version of Labor Day, I think! Stores and businesses closed-so lots of cyclists and runners out and about. We even saw a parade this morning!
There is so much to see and experience. I am thrilled to be part of Team USA and am so psyched we are in Italy! So far, so good. I even have “coversed” a bit with my pathetic Italin!
I must ready and sleep now. More later. This link is supposed to be active starting 10am Italy time (4am EST).
