went low-tech towards the end of the trip, so this will be the last entry and will cover a few days...
after the motorolo, we packed it up and headed to milan. had the chance to see the final day time trial on sunday and it was pretty tight in the race - contador, the spaniard, leading ricco, the italian, by just 4 seconds so there was a lot of anticipation. the lead-up to the race was hilarious, they know how to put on a show over there but the race itself was not what it could have been. contrador dropped the hammer, beating ricco by minutes in the time trial and it never really being close. still, an amazing event and the trip of a lifetime.
the rest of our time in milan we got to sightsee finally, saw the domo (church) and the galleria (shopping) and both were amazing and that night heard the milan symphony live in the piazza domo (church plaza). wow.
i am not quite sure what else to say about this trip. it was the trip of a lifetime! i am so greatful to all of you who helped make this possible, i can't even begin to say thanks enough. know that coach was happy to have the chance to do that, and so proud of the boys i brought me. we're planning our next in 2010, start saving (and training!) now - you won't want to miss this!
