Are You Ready for Some....Rugby???






There is no American football over here in Doha, so what is a 14 year old football fanatic to do? Play rugby, of course! Sam started with the Doha Rugby Club Minis in January and has loved it. He has travelled to a rugby tournament in Ghantoot, outside of Abu Dhabi, and to games in Bahrain, just a couple of weeks ago. I went along to Ghantoot, because hotel accomodations were involved, but I left the Bahrain trip to the guys...they camped out on the rugby pitch! Looks like Sam will attend rugby camp this summer at Cal Berkley with a friend. Needless to say, he is over the top with excitement about that! It has been a good experience and a lot of fun to boot. (no pun intended) His last training for the season is this Sunday evening, so I thought this a good time to pay tribute to Sam (#70) and his new found interest. (P.S. Keith played rugby after college and in our early marriage days. Guess like father, like son!)

Awesome. Can't wait to show Spike. Tell Sam how proud we are of him to adjust and live in this great world. Carol
