Justin to the Olympics

We only just solved the mystery of why we cannot upload pictures straight from Justin's phone, so let's go back in time to Justin in Italy at the Olympics!

Two of BYU's communications faculty took a group of twenty Sports Media students to Italy for two weeks to cover the winter Olympics--one week in Cortina and another in Milan. Knowing that Justin had served his mission in Milan, one of the faculty members invited him to join the group, and he eagerly accepted. In addition to revisiting old mission haunts and recreating old mission images, he and the students attended several hockey games and watched the U.S. men's team win a quarterfinal match against Sweden and the U.S. women's team win a semifinal match against Sweden, both en route to Olympic gold. Justin also dragged his faculty colleague to all the cultural highlights of Milan (except Leonardo's Last Supper, for which tickets must be reserved far in advance--with an inundation of Olympics-bound tourist, they had no chance.)  The group spent the final day of the trip visiting Bellagio and Como, which was Justin's final mission city.
