Well, they're off! All 18 players, 2 coaches and 8 parents (okay one child) pose for a quick picture at the Schnucks parking lot. Departure was a little ahead of schedule, leaving shortly after 10:00am CST.
Monticello Bus Company got us to the International Terminal of O'Hare in near record time arriving before 1:00pm. The check in process went real smooth even with many being their first time. We grabbed a quick meal, made it through security and are now waiting to board the SAS A300 airplane

.It's neat to see a former player, Stefan Wingo, come along his father as the Asst. Coach for the team. Though a new perspective on the side of the pitch, this will be his fifth trip to Sweden along with his father.
