Football madness!



In the airport...can't believe we are going to see them in person!
Playing with a French girl
Barca...Barca...BARCA!

Excited family

Today in the morning we left Mallorca.  When we were waiting for the plane, I was juggling these two balls from the cereal box and all these French girls were watching me.  It was kinda weird. Then one came over and started playing with me! When we got back we chilled at the flat for a bit and then left for the best moment ever!  We were leaving for the Barca vs. Real Madrid soccer game!  There were sooooo many people there!!!  100,000 people were blowing their horns, yelling, chanting, screaming.  And that was before we even went into the stadium!!!  It was cool inside the stadium because we saw them cleaning the field and when you looked up you could see the sky.  Oh I forgot!  The game started at 10:30...AT NIGHT!  We were sitting right by the net so we could see if someone scored.  For the whole first half there were no goals, not a single one :(  The second half started off with a nice, clean goal from Madrid.  It was Ronaldo who scored! A minute after Ronaldo scored Pedro scored for Barca and the crowd went crazy!  Then Xavi scored for Barcelona.  Then Messi scored off a penalty kick for Barca.  Then it was 3-1.  But then just before the game was about to end Madrid scored another one, but it was too late and BARCA won!  Woo hoo!  After the game there were so many people that no one could get a taxi and the metro was closed so we decided to stop and eat an ice cream even though it was almost 1 o'clock in the morning.  We kept waiting and waiting and walking around trying to find a way home and we didn't even get home until after 3 o'clock in the morning!!!! Then we went to bed straight away!
