so at 11:34 AM today, I e-mailed the final paper for Sports Tourism. It was a fun paper but I was glad to be done with it.
I ended up writing the paper on The Socio-Cultural and Economic Impacts of Sports Tourism with a special focus on Prague’s chances of hosting a future Olympiad. This wasn’t the direction I’d intended on, but the research seemed interesting so I went with it. Final paper was just shy of 25 pages. The C&HT paper isn’t due until the 18th but I’m going to get it done so I don’t have to worry about it . . . → Keep Going: One Paper Down

Two weeks in and one class down.
We basically wrapped yesterday with a tour of the Prague Sports’ Facilities including Sazka Arena, Czech Lawn-Tennis Club (where Navratilova trained before immigrating to the US) and Toyota Arena, home to AC Sparta. We had a great tour of Sazka and received a book about the development of the arena, and were even allowed on the field at Toyota. Even not being much of a soccer fan, that was pretty cool. Although we didn’t have a tour of the tennis center I enjoyed seeing pictures of Martina, since she was Queen at the time . . . → Keep Going: Prague: 2 Weeks In
