April 27 - Lakers Win in Basel! but Team illness :-(

Football update....
Early this morning, at 5:30am, both the junior and senior Lugano Laker teams got on the bus to head to Basel, where they played 2 games against the "Mean Machine". 
The juniors won easily - 63-0 - poor Basel! 
Then the senior team won 25-8. 

Now, I was debating whether to go or not, and since it was a rainy day, I decided to stay here in Lugano instead of standing outside for 2 games. It was probably a good idea, because unfortunately, many of the the coaches and players came down with diarrhea! The thought is that it came from the water bottles, which probably contained old water. Needless to say, the trip home consisted of numerous stops. 

The bus they chartered was from "Romantic Tours". Yes, I'm glad I decided to stay home. It surely would not have been a romantic tour coming home on a bus full of football players with diarrhea! 
Fortunately it's not too serious and everyone should be fine. :-)
