Getting to the 2015 World Championships

I have the distinct honor of travelling to Kazan, Russia and having one of our RAYS Nuna compete for her fathers country.

I'm going to write some thoughts and observations as we go on our 2nd, of many, I hope adventures.

Second adventure? Yes we went to Qatar in December, as the guests of FINA (Swimming's International Federation). That was a week long camp, with over 400 athletes from around the world, all under the age of 18. It was a terrific experience for both Nuna and myself.  I might blog about that separate experience one day.

Back to Russia. Well so far we had a layover in Moscow, so we had a guide for 8 hours that took us around the various sites in Moscow. What a beautiful city and very clean. Visiting Red Square was mine and Nuna's favourite place, to think of all the history that has passed through that square is unbelievable. After a nice Russian meal we went to catch our flight to Kazan, which is approximately 300 miles east of Moscow.

Great trip, but NO LUGGAGE! well my neighbor told me that would happen, so I was prepared.
