Kari and I arrived safe and sound in China. We are located in the heart of Shanghai, but have yet to see much beyond our hotel. We spent all day yesterday (Saturday) in technical meetings. Today, we spent our first day at one of the universities on the field training. The weather has been overcast and humid, but relatively moderate temperatures.
We are having some technical difficulties with the BLOG, but hopefully we will be able to solve that problem shortly.
Stay tuned!

Congrats on the fitness test, not that there was ever any doubt.

Hey Jen,
The alarm is set - Brazil v China!!I'd wish you luck but you don't need it. Have a great game and enjoy it.
Masseuses whenever you need them and ping-pong tables - you are really getting spoilt. If you said they had an open bar I'd be booking my tickets!!!
Keep the photo's coming.
Hi ladies,
I am so proud to see two Californians in the W.W.C.
I was assigned to referee UOP vs. Berkeley, last Sunday and I felt like I was in the WC. I can imagine the feeling being there. Have a great time, and all ways try your best.

Hi,I'm a Chinese fan of WWC. I spent much time finding here and it's amazing to communicate with two ladies in this way:)I shall say Ms.Bennett was very impressive when officating the match between China and Brazil despite the disastrous result. One can never imagine how many people especially Chinese were keeping a close eye on that game. You did a good job, Jen. And Chinese media even thinks our team was not favored by the referees in this Cup. I've also noticed Jen worked as the fourth official in the 1/4 final and I think our coach Domanski's overreaction was understandable cos she was too devoted to the game as well as our team. I wonder did you speak Swedish language your learned somewhere before to warn her to stay calm, Jen?
The final show will be put on this Sunday in my hometown and there is a slim chance we can meet in the stadium. Not sure about it yet. Anyway, plz enjoy every minute in Shanghai and leave your best memories here.

Hey,it's my second time to leave comments here.The final yesterday was fantastic and Germany team deserves the championship. It's a pity I didn't see you two ladies in the vip/vvip access area where I worked(maybe I saw Kari). Are you going to go back soon? I strongly suggest you staying with us to celebrate our National Day and enjoy the special olympics games beginning from Oct,2. Anyway, I appreciate the fair and fascinating matches you've brought to us very much.Jen is extremely impressive. Welcome back to Shanghai! Hope to hear from you soon.
