World Cross was in Punta Umbria, Spain. The meet headquarters was in a super sweet oceanfront resort and as you can tell had some pretty nice views of the sunset....a nice reminder that summer is just around the corner. We also were fortunate, on behalf of USATF, to get to tour the monastery and port where Christopher Columbus planned, financed and eventually set sail for his voyage to the New World. It was in the port city of Huelva only a few kilometers from our hotel. The sanctuary in that picture is still original from the 14th century. Hard to believe Christopher Columbus sat inside those 4 walls. The Captain of the Pinta, Captain Martín Alonso Pinzón, is buried underneath the alter up front.
