FIBA Euro Cup game in Wales

The trip to Wales was exhausting. We flew from Wesel airport (near Dusseldorf) into London. The problem came when we had to travel to Wales from London. The bus that came to pick us up was a small 16-seat bus, with no trunk space for baggage. The 16 people in our entorage had to squeeze into this small bus and basically put the bags around us, leaving no space. It was torture, with no leg room and bags pushing on my legs for almost 4 hours. Obviously, they did not give us the perfect conditions leading up to the game, however, we were able to pull out a win over the Rhonda Rebels for our first FIBA Cup win!

One thing that was a bit funny was that fact the people from Wales speak English, however, it was quite difficult to understand them! I had to really focus on what someone was saying. The biggest thing was the accent and then the use of some words. As far as what the place was like, I really have no idea. I only had a little time to look around while sitting in the bus. However, from what I did see, it seemed like a really nice place, with a lot of history. A place that I wish I had time to explore! Our next FIBA Euro Cup game is on Wednesday at home against Priolo, Italy.
