So today started with a great game of ultimate. This of course was only trumped by the scenery around us. The mountains behind the field we were playing on were ridiculous, on top of that it was an amazing day as far as weather goes. It's pretty crazy having God's creation overwhelm you even when your just playing a game of frisbee.
This picture should help you visualize:
The rest of the day was filled with the Teva games. Including getting a lot of free stuff (hats, shirts, cds, food, etc.) and watching a lot of activities. There was not only more kayaking but climbing and some freeriding going on. Being around world class athletes was very interesting.
Freeriding: Obstacle course in vail village for bikers, they make it look really easy. But some of the other guys we saw had some really tough times with the course.
The qualifiers for the world cup (rock climbing) were going on. I got a short video of an Italian climbing. Right before the Italian gets on the wall you can see a Japanese competitor fall off in the background. Sorry I didn't get any of the good stuff. People would go crazy when the guys would complete their routes.
One of the most fun things that I was able to see was the dog competition. There were two dogs I watched and one was an amazing jumper. The point was to jump out off a platform and grab a toy from a "toy holder". The dog in this video jumped 6 feet 10 inches to grab the toy. Incredible. There are only a handful of dogs in the world who can jump 7 and higher, so this one was pretty impressive.
And finally some more kayaking stuff. Bear with the video, the guy towards the end has a nice stuff to show off.
Towards the end of the day there was a concert for free. Many people attended and a lot of us were able to go out and speak with people. Some conversations getting only to small talk and others making it all the way to the gospel. Good times. It was awesome to be a part of the ministry. Overall a good day. Hope you guys enjoy the videos, I know they are not the best but they took a while to update...hopefully the effort was not in vain.
In Christ,
Tyler
