Taylor in Switzerland...

Taylor was one of 20 picked to represent the USA at the 2019 Paralympic Jr. World Championships in Switzerland.  Stacie dropped her off at the airport Saturday July 27th and she said everyone treated Taylor like a celebrity.  It is pretty awesome all the cool USA gear she got including a suitcase.  The guy checking her in said he wanted her suitcase.  haha!  She was lucky to have a girl from Boise competing that is a amputee so Stacie wasn't quite as nervous sending her off by herself.

Taylor with Coach Cruz.  
It was crazy seeing her on the map so far away in Nottwil Switzerland.






I screenshot the four pictures above from the video I watched of her in the 100meters




It was pretty cool she metaled in the 400 meter with a bronze!



Ron and Stacie went over on July 29th and were able to do a little sightseeing.  They said it was so beautiful that pictures didn't do it justice.  They weren't able to be with Taylor because she had to stay with the team but they were able to see her at the track meets.  Pretty amazing experience for all of them.
