So we are off! Dakota Smith (17), Levi Underwood (19) and myself left this morning from Marquette for Europe. The lack of snow in the Alps has made a few schedule changes for us....thanks to Evi Mitterstieler for taking care of the planning. After landing in Munich tomorrow morning, we will now drive to Austria for training. Levi and I are excited to see all of our old luge friends and Dakota is excited to be seeing everything for the first time! I can't wait to here the sound of our cleats as we walk up the track and the sound of the steels cutting ice as the athletes come down! It is music to my ears! - Tammy

After 19 hours in the air and at airports and 4 hours in the car, we have finally arrived in Kühtai, Austria! We are tired from the long trip and will rest tonight. Thank you to Matteo Clara for picking us up in Munich. It was a long day for him! We will put our sleds together tomorrow and walk the parallel track. Pray for cold and snow!
