| Cameron, Albert, Brandon & Allan waiting on basketball court. |
When we woke up, Cameron was tired and wanted to stay in bed, I ran to the dining hall to get some coffee and breakfast before they closed.
Cameron decided he would rather stay around the resort, do something here, then work on his homework. A bunch of US players and coaches were going to play soccer on the basketball court. So I took Cameron there, but he did not want to play. They were playing teams 5 vs. 5 and rotating teams in. 2 goals or 5 minutes. People got tired of waiting so another game started on the sand court. Unfortunately, our coach, Yury got injured in that game and was rushed off to the hospital. We were beginning to think we wouldn't have a coach for the rest of the tournament.

After lunch we walked to the gift shop with Ally, Harry, Xin & Michael Wang. Michael and Cameron ended up playing chess on a set they saw in the gift shop.

| I don't think I like coconut milk. |
They tried fresh coconut milk that came right out of the coconut. There is this special tool that takes the top off and then it punctures the coconut and they put the juice into the large thermos that has ice. So this wasn't the best tasting drink, but at least Cameron tried it. It was exotic and good for you, but it didn't taste that great.
After we returned from our trip, we were very happy to hear that Yury was back. His shoulder wasn't broken and it just needed to be iced and rested. Then back to the room for more studying.
The parents had a meeting in the lobby at 6:30 p.m. and I got to meet a lot more of the USA parents. Some of them I had never met even thought we have been here almost a week. I told the parents that if Rob & Lucas showed up to tell them that I arranged this welcome party for them. I decided to head back to the room to get Cameron go to the lobby and wait 15 minutes before going to dinner. While I had returned to the room, Rob & Lucas arrived. Charley (Albert Lu's dad) was nice enough to escort them to the room to surprise us.
We all ate in the dining hall and then Lucas was very tired and just wanted to go to sleep. Nighty, night.

Fun reading! I noticed the chess part could have been slightly better, but there are still three rounds left. Just think: 6.0/9 would sound really cool right now. Good luck!
