The Shortest Post Ever

Athens, Greece

We're about to go to the bus station to go to Corfu -- an island off the west coast of Greece -- but I wanted to post my top three highlights from the Olympics in Athens.

-Ivo Karlovic of Croatia lobs a shot over the head of Carlos Moya's (Spain) head and Moya hustles to retrieve it. His between the legs shot was spectacular and really pumped up the crowd. Evidently it pumped up Moya, as he ended up coming from behind to beat Karlovic in three seats.

-Lebron James recieves an ally-oop pass against the Australians and slams it home. The "Dream Team" took a while to get started, but in the end pulled it through. One note: the Australian fans were wild!

-We watched Lisa Fernandez pitch a one-hitter today against Greece, but the highlight was seeing Cat Osterman of UT. I wore my Longhorns shirt and Damon had his big foam "Hook EM" hands, and Cat spotted us in the stands and gave us a big "Hook EM!"

More later with some pretty cool pics of the Olympics, the Acropolis, and more.

Lizzie will enjoy reading the tennis favorites. Can't wait for the pics! I am also glad that y'all were able to bring the "hook 'em horns" to the Olympics. : )
