Game Day

We got ready for the game between Brasil and Portugal by walking around town yesterday and this morning, stopping at all the little shops, and finding shirts for all of us to wear. You may think that this made us look touristy, but au contraire....it made us fit in. EVERYONE was in green and yellow today. The game started at 11 and we were invited to a World Cup party at Bete's sister's house.

Here they give thumbs up instead of waving, and Seth has adopted the greeting. He now walks down the street giving thumbs up and saying "Bom Dia" to everyone.

After the game we all sat down to eat and converse. Here you can see I obviously am laughing about a joke I told myself, seeing as I didn't understand anything our hosts were saying :) Unfortunately we didn't take pictures of everyone watching the game...there was a lot of yellow and green there!!

Shaun, Seth and Hazel ended off the day by playing soccer in the field beside our house.
