Final results, closing ceremonies and more pics!

Well we were unable to beat the Mexicans in the medal race which left us in 4th overall. Yesterday we packed our boats and gear in the container during the day and walked in closing ceremonies that night. Fortunately our shuttle bus took us home from the sailing venue via the coast which gave us a chance to see some of the beautiful Rio coast! Today we are packing our bags and off to the airport! This experience has been incredible, however I can honestly say I am ready to get home! 15 days of the same food every night and sleeping in a dormitory gets old!
Here are some pictures!
