Hola from Austin and Maggie!
Today was an early morning for us all as we attended/played in the final tournament at a stadium in Barahona. It was exciting to see the progress made throughout our clinics and time spent with these players. They were ready to go with their new shoes and jerseys, you could tell they were excited to play. Austin and the boys from Minn. got to play the winning teams which were Altagracia and Don Bosco. In the championship game it was the Americanos vs. Don Bosco and we won by uno punto in overtime!! Very exciting to watch! After this long, but enjoyable time in the gym(which was muy caliente) we got to come back for lunch and head out to the BEACH! Despite ongoing stomach issues, we were all able to enjoy ourselves at the beach...the water was niiicccee! Now we are back at the Casa and just finished up dinner before we began our ¨goodbye ceremony¨ presented by the COTN and casa staff. We are sad to be leaving tomorrow..it has definitely flown by. We head out after breakfast into Santo Domingo where we´ll stay over night to rest up for our flight home the next day. As Dar said we had a great time at the Revival last night, although the ice cream might have caused us more grief than pleasure...:)
Thank you for all your prayers_

Sure hope everyone's stomach has settled down and that you had a wonderful closing ceremony. Hard to believe your trip is almost to an end. We wait eagerly to hear all about it (in person). Praying for a safe trip home. Love you all, Tammy
