We commute 2.5-3 hours each way and it only costs me an extra $100/month in gas. We only go to that gym for practice, she tumbles at a gym 15 minutes away the rest of the week...
We also just returned from attending, and I agree, it was a super cool opportunity for these kids! They learned a lot and got to make new friends from around the world. Quite fascinating to see so many young kids throwing elite tumbling skills in 1 place!
