Day 6 - Monday, July 13th

Monday was a looong day. We had an early practice (8:30am) at our favorite Curly Krieger Stadium field. We didn't get kicked off this time and didn't need to perform any felonies in order to play. We try to take our training seriously. Some of us try and get inspired by wearing clothes that reflect the major soccer powers around the globe, as with my Brazilian look. Others, well, have a slightly different look.

Not that there's anything wrong with this. We're a very open team accepting of all backgrounds, personal politics, as well as styles of undergarments. After practice we went to scout out our next oppponent, England, as they were playing Israel. This game was played at 11am and was at a much slower pace. Both teams looked dead in the heat with Israel winning 2-0. So our result wasn't so bad. Got back to the hotel, grabbed some lunch and ran over to the Wash & Dry place to get some laundry taken care of. Then it was off to Opening Ceremonies which I'll continue with tomorrow.
