The "Under Thirty" of Telefonica made light on personal disappointment in not physically being in Cape Town to ask silly questions while gazing into their darling eyes, taking in their beautiful accents; I digress.
The marvels of modern day telecommunication and a team press officer, Helena Paz, who simply rocks, made not "being there" ok. The guys, and Helena, took time out of their day to share how they felt on arrival to Cape Town, favorite moments, less then great moments, what they saw, what they forgot and how their first night on land panned out.
Allow me to refresh, the men in question are:
Mike Pammenter, bowman on Telefonica Black
Antonio "Neti" Cuervas-Mons, pitman on Telefonica Black
Daryl Wislang, bowman on Telefonica Blue
Pablo Arrarte, trimmer on Telefonica Blue
In there own words:
