The Tables Have Turned...

After looking at an email from the manager of the Finland team, its official, I am scheduled to get on a flight Tuesday the 12th getting into Helsinki the next night. They want me to try out for up to 14 days. I told them that I would be able to get myself most of the way there (to London) and so they decided that would be great and paid for the rest of the way. This try out is a little different then some I have been on. They will be giving me a little pocket money every day and also lunch and dinner will be provided. I hope I am what they want in a player and a proper contract is negotiated. If all goes well, I will be there until April. I am excited but trying not to get overly excited since I am not even there yet. Once I board that plane here at LAX, I will be pumped and ready to go. I looked at the weather yesterday and the temperature is a chilly 45 degrees! Good bye California weather, hello Scandinavia. I think after living in weather like that for over 7 years now I am pretty used to it. We will see how freezing it gets, knowing me it will probably be the coldest winter they have had in 80 years!
