Todo Bem?
Hey, its Rich and I have been training in Rio de Janeiro since the 8th of January. I have made Ipanema Beach my home for the first couple of months of 2007. The conditions for beach volleyball are a little better down here than in Canada during the winter (actually, its summer here)... Maybe you can tell by the pictures that we are training on a piece of pardise, the landscape is gorgeouss! More importantly, the training has been great. I am here with 3 of the younger Canadian players and a fourth has recently joined us. Our Brazillian trainer, Marcao, is an expert in beach volleyball and we are all glad to be working with him!!
I am adapting to the Brazillian lifestyle with the diet and portuguese lessons, but dont worry, I havent gotten to the Brazillian fashion sense yet, ie. the g-string swim trunks. But, when I do, Ill be sure to send you the pics!!
Tchau!!
ps. Todo Bem means "Its all good?" in Portuguese.

It looks so beautiful there! It is raining here so a day on the beaches would be great! Hope to see you soon.
Snowing, blowing, dark, and -9 today in Tierp, Sweden. This BEACH-volleyball idea looks like it might be the way to go after all. Train hard and "get-er-done" man. Talk to ya soon.

Rich...we have a storm blowing in today... coming from the USA. The beach is looking really tempting.
