Day Three Hundred Twelve: At an Irish Pub, in Argentina, Cheering for England

By now, World Cup games are nothing new for us, but here's the First for today: gathering at an Irish pub in Argentina with a large group of English and English descendants (and a few Argentinos) to watch England play and beat Tunisia in the World Cup. It was a loud, enthusiastic crowd and the best match we've seen so far!

Claire (who is English) and Katie (an American) are friends from Jeff's school

Day Three Hundred Ten: World Cup Breakfast Outing

Like so many Americans, we don't really follow fĂștbol (soccer). I'm pretty sure I've seen parts of a World Cup game, but I don't think I've ever specifically sought out a game and watched it all the way through. But, this morning, Jeff and Weston and I made our way to a little cafe to watch the Argentina/Iceland game. It was fun to be part of all the excitement and cheer for Argentina alongside some die-hard fans, even if the match ended in a tie.
