UNDEFEATED IN PORTUGAL!!!

Hello again after a loooong break. There have been some technology frustrations this trip. The type of internet available in Spain and Portugal has been a problem with the security settings on my work laptop. I have been trying to find a work-around for the problem, but have not had much success just yet. In the meanwhile -- it is exciting to be able to report that Fort Wayne United is UNDEFEATED in Portugal. We are up in the mountains in Portugal, near the Spanish border, not far from Vigo, Spain. Both teams played yesterday in a BEAUTIFUL stadium which is used by nearby professional teams for their training sessions.  They were tired, but powered-through and both teams walked away with the W, as well as a great story to tell about playing soccer in the mountains of Portugal against a Portuguese team who graciously offered them the jerseys off of their backs in a jersey exchange after the game.

All kids are doing well, having a great time and learning a lot! Working to resolve tech issues so that I can do a full update on all of the events!

Going to the Barcelona v. Celta Vigo game tonight in Vigo.  Leaving soon!
