US Olympic Swim Trials

Samantha and I pose for a picture looking down at the pool. We had great seats. They were in the upper balcony, but they were in the middle, so we could see the whole pool.

Last Tuesday, Samantha and I went with Auntie Debra to the morning session of the US Olympic Swim Trials. Someone gave her church a bunch of tickets and she wanted us to go with her. It was a lot of fun and really neat to watch. Samantha even knew who to cheer for: Katie Hoff and Michael Phelps. Michael Phelps is amazing and I absolutely love to watch him swim!! People sitting around us were amazed at her saying "go Katie" when Katie Hoff swam. We got to watch both Katie Hoff and Michael Phelps swim in prelims, so that added to the experience! Afterward, we went to the Aquazone to walk around and look at the sponsor's booths.
