Visitors!

Today was a busy day.  We started out with training on the nordic trails, as well as our final ski testing before tomorrow's classic races.  After training, we drove the five minutes up the road to watch the men's giant slalom.  By the time we got back to the house, Marine's family had arrived from France.  We had a nice visit before dinner and we're looking forward to visiting more with them in the coming days! 

When Andrew came back from this afternoon's coaches meeting, guess who was riding in the passenger seat with him after Andrew found him hanging out at Subway in downtown Middlebury?  Nevio Zeni!!  We were all excited to see Nevio again (he began his travels two days ago in Tesero, Italy), but I'm sure nobody in this house was more excited to see him than the coaches when, after dinner, Nevio pulled out his waxing apron and offered to spend the evening helping us wax the team's skis!  Thanks to Nevio, the coaches are going to get to bed before 2am tonight, which will only help us make better decisions tomorrow.
