World Cup Final

July 13, 2014

Today we worked on packing and cleaning then dropped off some bags at Meghan’s house. Then we drove to Maria’s house to see her new place and have a beer. Then we went to the tapas bar to meet some of Maria’s friends and have all you can eat tapas for 15 euros. We really enjoyed it. She has some lovely friends and we got tons and tons of food. Way to much! When we were finished we walked to a public viewing of the world cup final in Chemnitz. Unfortunately the big viewing place was closed so we had to stand in a smaller one but it was still good. They use this place to watch movies outside which is cool. You had to pay if you wanted a seat but it was free to stand. So we stood and watched the game. It was Germany versus Argentina. They played a great game. It was neck and neck, back and forth, goals that didn’t count and finally a tie. So they went into overtime and with only about 5-10 minutes left of the game our player Goetze scored the only goal of the game!!!! YAY!!!! WE WON!!!!!!!!! TOR DEUTCHLAND!!! It was amazing, everyone cheering and fireworks going off, horns blowing and everyone so happy! It was really cool too because the game was in Rio they turned the Jesus into the colors of the German flag! After we watched the cup being given to Germany we headed home in the craziness. We even drove under a flag that two guys were holding in the middle of the road! Honking horns and people cheering the whole way! 

Until next time,
