The plane ride from Denver to Frankfurt was extraordinarily long. Like 10 hours at least. Maybe got 1 hour worth of sleep. Not enough to write home about. The flight from Frankfurt to Verona was potentially the prettiest because the Alps are so beautiful in the winter. \
The drive from Verona was painless. We had dinner at a pizza joint called La Vie I believe. I had an incredible calzone unlike any calzone you typically get in the states. It was super light and crispy. I could have one of those every day for the rest of my life. Today, we had a practice and did an off-ice. More practice tomorrow then Paul competes on sat and sunday. More to come.
