In this picture, I'm showing off the fruits of worldwide sevens travel: my shorts are from an Atlantis Men's tour of Tahiti in 2009; the T-shirt from an Atlantis Women's tour of Borneo in 2008, and the hat (of the top Cuban baseball team "Industriales") from a co-ed Atlantis tour to Havana in 2011.

We gathered together Friday evening June 8 for a quick run through with this mostly collegiate team (5 Princeton, 2 Penn State, 1 Vassar), then retired to the Signes household for a traditional paella.

Saturday we won 4 matches, vs. the Suffolk Bull Moose, Severn River, Harrisburg and Lancaster, but suffered two losses, both to the DC Furies, in the pool round and again in the semifinals.
