So I just thought I would send a quick update and let you all know we're alive!! Things are pretty crazy down here..clearly! Skipper is going to send an longer update about our volunteering and all, but for now just wanted to let ya know that we're wrapped up in world cup mania here! Heading into Cape Town this afternoon to watch the opening ceremonies and the 1st match South Africa v Mexico and then France v Uruguay, but the big game is tomorrow...USA v England! :) watching it all from the fan zone in Cape Town with our new housemates! :)
Ps. picked up our tickets a few days ago!!! SOOOO EXCITING, I felt like I was Charlie in the chocolate factory...because WE'VE GOT THE GOLDEN TICKETS!!!! :) We'll be at England v Algeria on the 18th and Cameroon v the Netherlands on the 24th!!! SO HAPPY :)
More from Katie later!
Miss you all from the world cup capital!!!

Soccer mania personified- I can feel the joy, the sheer relation of your being at the World Cup. I can hear your excited voice by reading your blog. That makes me feel good for you - what a brillant choice for your summer fling. I forgot about all the hoopla that goes along with an event; and of course this is the WORLD CUP!!! How could I have been so naive or limited in my thinking - Its all around you and I am osmosing (no such word but you get my drift I hope; feeling the wave, the enthusiasm, through you). Hang in there which obviously shouldn't be hard. Love Mom (a.k.a. Maxine)
