I have arrived! Unfortunately, the hotel doesn't have the best internet service in the world so posts will come and go. I have to sit in the lobby to access the internet, but sometimes it's a nice change of scenery.
I am staying in one of the hotels that were designated for the different teams. So far I have also seen South Africa, Great Britain, Senegal, Kenya, Georgia, and Latvia at my hotel. It's such a weird feeling getting into an elevator with someone and not knowing if they'll understand your friendly, "Hello! Where are you from?".
Since arrival, I have seen the training pool and the competition pool. Both are great pools (pictures to come). The training pool is right on the beach to the sea. You can literally walk out of the pool and into the sea. It's incredible. The competition and warm-up pool are what one would expect, but I will try to remember to take a picture tomorrow anyway.
The bus ride to the pool is LONG. There are different bus lines, but they all stop at multiple hotels so it takes a little while to get to the pool. The good news is, there is an amazing view along the way!
I am going to take some pictures around the hotel and post them soon. I will also take pictures of the pools and have those up later today or tomorrow.
