On the third day, the Explorers journeyed to Reims, France and visited anoth- er beautiful Cathedral before ending the travel day in Paris. Head Coach John Miller and the Explorers then saw many of Paris' intriguing and history-filled sites, including the Arch d'Triumph, the Rue de Rivoli, the Champs d'Elysees and, of course, the Eiffel Tower. The three days spent at Paris also allowed the team to venture off to Versailles to see the gardens and travel along the Seine River as well as visit the Louvre Art Museum, which contains the famous Mona Lisa. After spending three days in Paris, the Explorers traveled to Bruges, Belgium, home of the Basilica of the Holy Blood, one of the most beautiful Cathedrals in all of Europe. The team then played against the Eureka Bruges Basketball Team on the first night and the Dames Basketball team on the second.

The Explorers concluded the trip by seeing some of the sites in Amsterdam, including a tour of the Anne Frank House.
