Hey guys, just wanted to send a quick update before I head to the airport to meet my family. First, we went to the salon in the International zone yesterday and it was quite the busy place. They wash and dry your hair for free and all other services are at a cost. There were some pretty "brave" people getting all kinds of stuff done in there from Mohawks to bleached hair and bangs. I decided to play it safe until after competition ;-) But check out Michelle's nails- she got the Olympic rings drawn on there!!!
  I'm thinking of getting this hairstyle done for competition tomorrow... haha
 Ok, on to the stadium. So I went there for the first time today (well, besides the opening ceremonies but the track was covered then). It is nicknamed the "Birds Nest." The track is unreal and feels very fast- I got really excited to compete once I walked in and realized that tomorrow the stands will be packed and I will be jumping! I got my heat sheets today, there are two flights of like 18 jumpers... a lot of girls! Anyways, here's some pics of the stadium.
  The next picture is me on the warm up track with the competition stadium in the background.
 Ok, off to the airport! I will try to check in with you guys tomorrow before I compete!
