England v Algeria for the Cupa del Mundo

So the World Cup fever has been crazy! The volunteering is declining since all the children are on holiday for the entire month of world cup (why aren't all countries like that?? :)). But, we have definitely been keeping busy!

On Friday, Katie and I along with a bunch of our housemates witnessed a rather unimpressive showing for the English team at Green Point Stadium in Cape Town....However, that is not to say that it wasn't ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!! The stadium is unreal and absolutely beautiful and to see such football was just awe-inspiring!! Seriously, I was in heaven!!

Katie and I have also made a new friend, Mackenzie from Oregon! She's awesome and going to come along to Botswana and Victoria Falls with us in the next week! Yeah for making new friends! :)

We are currently driving the garden route for a few days...yes I said driving (aka me driving stick shift on the wrong side of the road for 3 days!! watch out South Africa we have one crazy American driver on the roads!!) :) I suggested decking out our new Mazda in American flags and obnoxious soccer gear just to provide an indicator to the other drivers...watch out! haha

Have an exciting wine tour on bikes planned for Wednesday...yes I am not quite sure why we are continually endangering our lives with modes of transportation... haha not really but biking to 4 wineries in between tastings should be entertaining to say the least!

Then we get the exciting opportunity to see Cameroon v the Netherlands on Thursday!!!!!! SO EXCITED FOR ANOTHER GAME! I need to buy a Holland jersey! :)

The off to Jo'Burg and Botswana on Friday....Southern Africa here we come!

More soon!
