FIFA World Cup Game!

Today was the day! We went into Cape Town around 10am, Meganne and I went separate from the group so we could do a little shopping. I picked up a couple T's for Hepher and Cameron, hope they like them. As soon as we left the store it started raining, but we headed down the Fan Walk anyways. We ended up running into part of the group at a really cool bar, so we stayed for a couple of Cider's(fruity beer) and dried off. I think we were the loudest group in the bar! We all left to go to the stadium around 12 and joined the parade of people walking towards the gates. Oh I forgot to mention, when we got on the bus in the a.m. we did a drawing for who would get the lower level seats, there were only five. Meganne and I were both picked!!
The stadium is amazing!! I took lots of pictures, so don't worry, they will be up soon. Our seats were parallel with the field, 25 rows up. The game started of slow, 1 - 0 at half time. Portugal ended the game 7 - 0!!! It was their biggest victory so far in the Cup. The best shot of the game was taken by Ronaldo when the ball rolled off his back, over his head and he just simply kicked it into the goal. You guys should try to see if it is on YouTube, it was hilarious. We booked out off the stadium a little early and headed to The Waterfront to do some more shopping and left shortly after at 5.
So we dropped off laundry in the a.m. before leaving, we had piles of clothes and nothing left in our closet. We walked in for dinner and were told that not all the laundry was done, of course....ours wasn't done!!! Tomorrow we are hiking and we have nothing to wear! No idea what to do, we'll see how it goes lol
