I know that all of you are homesick for your boys, just as they are homesick for you. I talked to Ian today and he said he knew that everyone was starting to get homesick because everyone was talking about what food they wanted to eat as soon as they got home. The meat which they have been eating here is primarily pork. I can imagine that some of these guys would begin salivating if I mentioned the Habit. Mexican food is also causing yearning in their tummies. One can only live on pizza and gelato alone for a few days. Chris said that he could eat 2 1/2 times the dinner he receives each night. Carter told me that he was hanging in there. 3 square meals, although tasty and filling, just doesn't seem like enough food for them. I thought what they really needed was a refridgerator filled with food which they could open and graze at any time of the day.
I wanted to load a couple of photos of the boys' rooms on the upper right corner of the post. It is somewhat frightening for the chaperones when we pass by their rooms but they seem to know where everything is located. Is this a preview of what it will be like for them in college?
More photos have been posted on photobucket. They include practice warm-ups, scrimmages with the South African team and general photos taken through the day. Again, they are snaps with the intention of letting you know what they guys may be experiencing through the day.

It's nice to see that they have made themselves "at home" - haha.
