My flight home leaves in about nine hours and I need to finish packing up. It's been an amazing trip, filled with great baseball and interesting experiences. I hit 10 different card shops and managed to reduce my single card want list from around 200 cards to 16! I also managed to pick up a number of sets that I'd been looking for on the super cheap side.
