Iceland took home the bronze at the European Handball Championship that ended yesterday in Austria. We took home the silver at the Beijing Olympics, so this is our second medal from a big championship in 1,5 years. Getting a team that good from a nation of 360.000 people is pretty amazing - in my humble opinion - and these guys on the team are our heroes today :)
Iceland welcomed them home today, and there was a live broadcast from the welcoming ceremony. I turned it on on my computer but had to go upstairs to make dinner, just leaving it on. All of a sudden I was hearing clapping from the computer area, looked downstairs and there was my 3,5 year old, glued to the screen, clapping excitedly whenever one of our fantastic handballers was called to the stage. Now there is a fan for you!!!
Next year, it's the World Championship in Sweden. Maybe we'll take home the gold - it's the one medal we're missing LOL Well, we can always hope!
