Fussball!



So David and I spent pretty much all afternoon and evening today watching the World Cup. It was pretty exciting! The atmosphere at Curlers was really electric! England was playing Portugal and the crowd was split on who they were supporting. There were two guys on the couch in front of the screen wearing Portugal jerseys and who would stand and sing the Portuguese national anthem from time to time (in Portuguese!). That was pretty fun. Most who supported Portugal did so because they didn't want to see England win. Those at home who are unfamiliar with how the Cup works, England lost, so they are now out of the running. It was wild to be in the middle of such a loud crowd yelling and screaming, and also exciting when Portugal won! This evening's game wasn't as cool, no one really cared as it was just France and Brazil. Initially I was cheering for Brazil, however, I was so tired that I just wanted a team to win without having to go into overtime and penalties like the previous game had. France won 1-0 in the normal time, so I was happy. Go Germany!!!!!!!
