Rest and Relaxation

The U.S. players took full advantage of their first day off from training, relaxing around the hotel, taking short excursions around Shanghai and doing some shopping. Heather O’Reilly and Leslie Osborne visited the tallest operational building in Shanghai, which is right next to what will be the tallest building in Shanghai (currently under construction). They also went to the driving range and hit golf balls for an hour. Several players went to coffee shops and made the USA’s first trip to McDonalds. You know the food is good at the team hotel if the first trip to McDonald’s doesn’t come until five days into the trip. Several players did some light shopping (usually shopping is of the heavy variety for WNT players) and the team capped if off with a meal at an Italian restaurant at night. It’s back to training tomorrow.
