Poznan, we have arrived.

Team Finland took the early route to Poznan today. The Tampere crew left at 1:30AM and arrived in Helsinki before 5:00AM. Check in was pretty easy this year with only one name glitch, two letters switched in Joni's name, but all taken care of now. Jani survived his first plane ride, first on the big Lufthansa plane and then on the prop plane from Munich to Poznan. Waiting for us at the airport was a young lady in a yellow t shirt ready to spend the week with us. Klaudia has already taken us on a great walk around Lake Malta to find the venue. The three fields and the practice field are right on the edge of the lake. Going to be interesting to see how many balls end up in the water! It's quite a walk from the dorm where the guys are staying to the venue, probably a good 40 minutes. There is a really nice mall within a short walking distance for them with a good food court and lots of good shops. Tomorrow we need to find the old part of town. Tomorrow I will also start introducing you to the members of Team Finland Poland.
