Today the weather in Holland was just gorgeous. We started off the day by switching hotels and beginning to explore our new town. A few of us traveled into the small town of Wassenaar. The cheese and chocolate were fantastic! The rest of us enjoyed the sun on the hotel deck. Amy Cohen Action

Team Klein Zwitserland has been the best competition we've seen thus far. Our team was happy to play better in the second half and to score a goal against such a strong team. The unique feature about Klein Zwitserland's field was the sprinkler system had a mind of it's own. Casey seemed to always find the shooting guns of water wherever she went.

Dinner wasn't so good; obliviously we decided to order 300 guilders worth of pizza. Feeling a little stuffed, it's time to go. An early day is ahead of us; tomorrow will be our last game.

A special thanks to the greatest tour guides of Amsterdam, Keimpe and Yirga
