The past few days it has been humid and sticky, but the day that James and I meet his soccer team at the City Hall in Seoul it rains...jaja. Today the metro was packed with people, and everyone wearing the color red, representing their country. It reminds us of 2006 World Cup in Germany, when we saw the Semi Final game, France vs Portugal. We so wish we were in South Africa, but we are still excited to be in a different country and celebrate the World Cup in the Korean Culture.
The minute we exit the metro, we could hardly move. Thousands of people blowing their horns, waving their flag, and also wearing headbands with devil horns. City Hall is a large area, but 3 hours before the game, there was already hundreds of people. They had 4 large TV screens, but we couldn't see them well because everyone had their umbrellas up, and poking each other in the eye when they pass through..jaja. There was also a lot of TV crew, and the minute we exit the metro james and I were filmed cheering for South Korea...OLLEH, that is what they say.
Of course, the night ended well by South Korea winning!!!
It was a lot of fun. We took a lot of pictures and videos, so check them out.

Both of you guys inspire me to travel
I'm so impressed with the kids. The dances are cute and they stay together! They seem like bright kids over there.
