We have a full schedule of exchanges for August and September 2009 and 2010. I would really like to see the French Open and Wimbledon someday too.

I took 257 pictures. Some were taken with 3 or 4 pictures burst at a time. The best day watching the tournament was Saturday of the first week. We spent the day watchng the top matches of the day from the Merrill Lynch Box. But the side matches allow you to get the best pictures.

I also think the best time to go to the US Open or any 2 week Tournament is the first week from Thursday to Sunday of the first week. You are able to see most of the better players during this time playing some good matches. By the 2nd week some of the better players may be out of the Tournament.

Another nice feature of the Tournament was they had a tent to store our luggage. So on Thursday we went directly to the tournament from the airport and only missed one 1 set from the 1st featured match of the day. We had a 5:00 pm flight back to Milwaukee on Sunday. We checked out of the hotel, went to the Tournament with our lugagge, stored the lugagge until it was time to leave for the airport.
