RIO DE JANEIRO -- A visit to Rio wouldnt be complete without a trip to see the famous Christ the Redeemer statue.The U.S. womens basketball team visited one of the new seven Wonders of the World after practice Thursday. They were in awe of the breathtaking views offered from the top of Mount Corcovado. The mens basketball team had gone to see the statue a few days earlier.Going up there I had no idea it was going to be that huge in person, Elena Delle Donne told The Associated Press while sitting and waiting for the tram back down to the bottom of the mountain. I had a lot of fun getting different photos up there, pretty amazing to see. If you google a picture imagine that but 50 times bigger, maybe a 100 times bigger. It was just beautiful and not only just the statue but everything around it and being able to see all of the views of Rio is just awesome.While taking their own photos, the players also posed for pictures with other visitors to the statue. They even photobombed a few unsuspecting tourists, who smiled at the added attraction of one of the best womens basketball players in the world jumping into their picture.Diana Taurasi didnt just photobomb people, however, she also made a few new friends with a bunch of Argentinians who were near the statue. She chatted them up and then took photos with them.This wasnt the first time that a U.S. womens basketball Olympic team has visited one of the worlds most famous sites. Tamika Catchings was on the 2008 squad that went to the Great Wall in China.Its amazing. Thinking about all the places basketball can take you and all the things you can see, Catchings said. Being able to experience it with people you care about and love. Coming out here today after practice, youre like youre tired, but coming here you get rejuvenated. Down there it doesnt look as cool as it does up here.---Online:AP Summer Games website: http://summergames.ap.org/Follow Doug on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/dougfeinberg Jackie Bradley Jr Red Sox Jersey .

Maori All Blacks head coach Colin Cooper has made seven changes to the team that will face Irish provincial side Munster on Friday in Limerick.?The side includes five new caps in Reed Prinsep, Billy Guyton and Ambrose Curtis who will start, while Under 20s captain Leni Apisai and Waikato skipper Whetu Douglas will make their debuts off the bench.Cooper said the win over the USA last week was satisfying but they were also looking forward to the unique experience of playing in Limerick.Our exit plays last week were particularly good and I thought that was the edge that we had over the US, said Cooper. We played a lot of rugby in their half. But I think that Munster being another physical pack, particularly at lineout driving time, we will want to play the game in their half.Were expecting a lot of physicality down the back so well be looking to our bench to make an impact. This match is a huge game. I think every player at some stage in their career would like to play Munster in Limerick. We certainly saw the passion of the people here and the stadium being sold out, Ireland beating the All Blacks at the weekend - its got everyone pretty hummed so it will be a mighty contest, Cooper said.EExpecting the Irish to get behind their team, Cooper said he was expecting some intense noise at Thomond Park Stadium.ddddddddddddThe crowd is like an extra, the 24th person. They are very vocal and very passionate so it will be a challenge for us. Ive always admired Munster from afar. The people here are pretty passionate, and certainly people here know New Zealand and they know these players - they are very respectful people.This game is going to be special. Ive always admired Munster from afar and now Im going to be at the coalface of taking on Munster, it will be a great experience and opportunity to lead such good men like weve got in this group.Maori All Blacks team Vs.
