So folks, for those of you who are going to be in town Saturday, I thought I’d mention that my plans include taking in the Brazil vs France game at the Fox & Hound at 1:55 pm. Put down the rake, the paintbrush or whatever other project you are working on and come enjoy [...]
No, I’m not going to pat any of the World Cup announcing teams on the back. As this story points out (hat tip to Bob Jordan), it has not been a memorable World Cup if you include the announcers. I’ve been surprised by the lack of commentary about it, even among the local [...]
Day 3 & 4
This was our first day that we had no scheduled games so we thought we would do some touristy stuff. We tried to go to a concentration camp but it was closed so we only got to see it from the outside. It was still intense. Just seeing [...]
