A great life experience and played against all of the top European teams, no Olympics.

How did she get the horse to swim? (imagine green text there)

Dads first wifes brother was an alt boxer for Italy in 1948
Grandma helped coordinate the volunteer effort for the 1984 games. It added to the pile of Olympic stuff.
