First, the day is Como was very nice. Everyone enjoyed the boat tour and a free afternoon to see the city. It seemed most of the guys were busy trying to wrap up some final souvenir shopping, and many were found wandering around with one last pizza or gelato cone.
There was also one last team dinner tonight. Fabio actually said this was one of his favorite restaurants and the food did not disappoint. He made sure the menu was different every time, and was representative of the area we were in. This time, there were cold chicken and beef entrees, plus salad, antipasto and cheese risotto. Again, it seemed popular. And the restaurant even made a special cake with a Panther logo on it to help us wrap up our trip to Italy.
Finally, the team gave Fabio a special gift for his efforts - an autographed pair of size 18 shoes courtesy of Mitchell Carter. Cool, cool idea by the guys, and we were all happy to sign. A big thumbs up to Fabio, who just might have been convinced to come and visit Milwaukee this year.
For now, thanks for following during this trip. But again, check back later this week for a full travelogue from Como. And, I'll be uploading a ton of pictures from the trip once we are back, and I'll post some photo galleries. I should also have some final overall and game stats to add to the website, too, so look for those. And, it will be November before we know it.
