Brazil #5: WORLD CUP-GAME 1



BRAZIL 1 CROATIA 0

We are in Brazil at an exciting time. If you are in the US you most likely have no idea the World Cup is taking place right now or even what it is for that matter. However, this is not the case here. Yesterday was so much fun around town as everyone was wearing some sort of Brazil paraphanalia. Throughout the day you would here an occassional burst of fireworks. School was out and most businesses closed early. We had a party at the students house that drew quite a crowd. I guess that happens when you mention projector and big screen.

The top picture is of Alan, Chip and Streed. Alan is a student in Belo Horizante who came here for the summer and is living with our team. He is serving as one of two translators. Oh, and he LOVES Streed.
