We finally arrived to our destination for the day, Athens Georgia. Beautiful town where we visited different sites of the city.

We visited the University of Georgia, where many enthusiastic students held the torch for world peace.

Here is Preedidutta and Uugana taking a photo with Uga, the mascot of the Georgia Bulldogs.

There was also a festival taking place where many people were happy to hold the peace torch.

These gentlemen lost his arms in an accident and wanted to do something positive with his life, so he choose to do art work and he brings so much joy with his masterpieces.

Mark, one of the owners of the Athens Running Company, welcomed us to his store and wanted to make his own wish for world peace.

After a long day, the girls team took a break at the end of the day for a cup of coffee and tea. Felt good to seat down and relax and share the highlights of the day.

Then we headed to Kate's and Dan's lovely home, where they welcomed and hosted the women's team. They prepared a delicious dinner for us and we spent the night in their cozy home. What a treat it was spending time with them in such a beautiful, peaceful home surrounded by trees, many trails and Mother Nature. We would like to thank them for their kindness and generosity.

Our Infinite gratitude to Kate, Dan and his family.
