Jason Reads and the Rooster Crows in Tunis

March 13, 2009

It’s morning here in Tunisia. We woke up to the sound of a rooster crowing at 5am! (Not fun)

Jet Lag+Rooster Crowing= Grrrr

We’ve been reading (You may note pic of Jason) and watching some TV on Mega Video when our internet connection is working.(5.5 MBS=Awesome speed!)

There are 77 competitors from about 15 different countries here. The competitions starts at noon and we are 5 hours ahead of EST.

I have a bye and everyone else is fencing on the first day. Only Italy and France sent their national team plus full contingents.

Other teams just sent either their top guys and no one else or younger fencers. No China, Korea or Russia.

Wish us luck!
