11 am (Central) we had our opening ceremony. It's basically the most formal part of the entire tournament. All the teams dress in their uniform best, get "piped" out with a real bagpipe player, and are escorted by a bunch of cute kids carrying their respective state flags. Our California flag bearer was named Cole, and he did a great job. The opening ceremony pictures were taken by a native Minnesotan named Erica who also did a great job. What had drawn us to her and made her a target to ask her take some photos for us was that she wore pink. We are grateful of our pink connection. Thank you, Erica, for your kind heart, fast fingers, and good eye. Here are a few photos from today:
As you can see, we are the only pink team this year. And our pinks are brighter than ever!
We definitely stand out against the white snow which had started today, and amongst the crowd. Well, it has always been our motto: "...at least we look good."
The Ustream test was a success. If you missed the opening ceremony, that's okay. We've figured out how to record all of our media and you can access it anytime. Here's the link:
