2:45 p.m. --Michigan lands in Milan following a flight from Detroit to Paris and a short flight from there to Milan. While at the airport, the team meets up with newcomer Katarina Glavinic, who made the trek from her home country of Croatia to be with the team on its foreign tour.
4:30 p.m. -- The team checks in at the hotel and drops off all of its luggage before heading to the practice facility for its first foreign practice.
5:30 p.m. -- Michigan departs the hotel for its first practice abroad, arriving to the facility at 5:40 p.m. From there, the team began a tough practice to help fight the jet lag and prepare for the first match of the week, which is scheduled for Sunday (June 24).
8 p.m. -- The Wolverines finish their first practice and hit the road for their first team meal together -- which consisted of the typical Italian fare, of course. Pizza, salads and pasta for everyone!
10:30 p.m. -- Showers and LIGHTS OUT! It's been a long day and a half of travel for the girls and they are ready to get a good night's rest.
