Today is Sunday, June 27th, one day before I leave for Argentina. I am 1/2 way packed and just made a last-minute trip to Walmart to get a few more things I need for the trip. Yesterday we watched the US game and were sad to see our team eliminated by Ghana...Now, I am definitely routing for Argentina, and I am excited about the chance to cheer for them when I am in Buenos Aires.
My heart is also with Mexico in this game. I lived there for 2 years and was actually in Mexico City in 1999 teaching school during the World Cup. I remember bringing my tiny portable TV to my classroom in Bosque de las Lomas and watching the games with my 1st grade class. It was so exciting, being part of the celebration at La Fuente de Diana on Reforma when Mexico won one of their games in the first round.
It looks like Argentina is dominating so far...the score is now 2-0...but that could change at any minute. I am attaching a video of us watching the game, and I will post again before I leave for BA tomorrow.
Besos!
Lisa :)
