Lake Como, Italy -
The Boston College women's basketball team survived its first day in Italy. The Eagles flew out of Boston Logan Airport on Saturday night only to land in Rome at 1 p.m. on Sunday afternoon. The team arrived at Lake Como by 5 p.m. to start their Italian journey.
Upon arrival the team was met by Tour Representative Mike Hayward, a native of Washington, and the Italian guide Elena D. After a check-in at the Barcheletta Excelsior along Lake Como, the team enjoyed a full meal at Ristorante Orologio. The first course was a small piece of cheese pizza followed by a large plate of ziti. The third course was steak frites followed by dessert -- a chocolate chip custard cake.
After a long day of travelling, some of the members of the team walked along the water, others headed straight for the hotel to catch up on some sleep.
The Eagles will spend Monday touring the Lake Como area before departing for game against TK Hannover (Germany).
