Brady and the Az Diamondbacks

Tonight Brady was presented his own jersey, shot a "baseball" target to kick off the game, and threw out the first pitch. 

Of course there were interviews, autographs and the occasional celebrity photo shoot to do.   We got to watch it all from the field excwpt for the televised interview qith Mark Grace...what a great experience!

Archery Team Breakfast & Back to the Park

We were back to the USA House for breakfast with the archers and their families.  This place is amazing...shopping, food, computers and tons of TVs and a great place for the athletes to watch the other sports and relax during their free time. 

After breakfast it was back to the park to find those great Red deer...this time with Sami, Brady and John in tow as they wanted to get glimpse at one or two.  Well no Red Stag this trip but we came across a couple dozen fallow deer that literally licked our hands so everyone left satisfied.

Then it was back to the White Horse for one last dinner and then everyone headed back to start packing for our flights tomorrow...counting the hours as this has been a very long two weeks and we are READY to be home.

More Great Photos from London

Hope you enjoy...

In contrast Alfred and I have been doing absolutely nothing the past 24 hours so I have no photos or fun news.

Interview with Ryan Seacrest

http://www.nbcolympics.com/video/archery/ryan-seacrest-talks-with-u-s-archery-medalists-on-today.html

Today we hit the road...

We took a coach tour through the countryside outside of London.  Most of the area were farms according to Alfred...I wouldnt know as I fell asleep.  Haha

Our first stop was in the town of Bath where we looked at the old Roman public baths and the most beautiful cathedral - Bath Abbey. 

Our second stop was Stonhenge.  Amazing structure that makes you wonder why it was created back in 3000 BC. 

We stopped for a lunch of fish and chips and then made our third stop at Windsor Castle the home of HRH Queen Elizabeth II.  Beautiful castle, wish we could have seen more of it.  We ran around town for a bit, shopped for Alfred a tartan aka skirt and had some sorbet.

We are home now and ready for bed.  Big day tomorrow watching Brady shoot in the individual match.

Missing you all!
