Back at home!

Hi everybody. I´m back from the Minneapolis Octagon camp now and I had a great time! Me, patrick and jacob stayed at Shjon podeins´house. He is a formular stanley cup champion with Colorado Avalanche!

This week has been awesome! The Podeins´family took so good care of us and helped us with everything we kneeded all the time. There were a lot of people in their house last week. It was Shjon himself, his wife Sherry, his daughter anna, Shjon jr (Daniel) and Little buddy, the dog of the house. There was also a guy from phoenix, Colton, that stayed with us. he´s going to play for Fargo next year in the USHL.

anyway, we got there on monday afternoon so we went straight to the house, just packed up our stuff and got to know the house and the Podeins´ family.

Tuesday: It was a rough night to sleep because of the jetlag. so we were up early to have breakfast and then we went to play some basketball right around the block. After that we went to the icerink and we got to meet kevin who helped us the whole week and he was really great! He took care of the off-ice training. Our coach on the ice was Barry. He was specialized on power skating and he also worked with Tampa bay, Calgary and St.louis.

wendesday, thursday, friday were just practice and taking it easy at the house. except that we went to hooters with Kev!

saturday: we practiced as usual and we went off to Rochester our something to a blockparty. The place where Shjon grewed up. It was a lot of peaople there, most older people like in their 35-40s
But still we had a great time.
sunday: we woke up in Rochester and left pretty early to get home. we packed our stuff and went to the Mall Of America. It was huge. It had like five rolercoasters inside! I bought two hats and a pair of pants for me. One football jersey and a ball too for my little brother Tim :)
We were in the mall for a couple of hours before we had to leave to the airport.

I must say that I had a great time in Minneapolis and got to meet much new people that I hope I´ll see again! Colton for shooooooooooooooooooooooooow;)

I´ll be back soon
