Germany Wins!

After our birthday party for Sarah, we had a break and then went out to a traditional German restaurant for a meal, and then to watch the BIG soccer match between Germany and Portugal. Soccer is everything here, and the Euro Cup is almost as big as the World Cup, so the fans of the German National Team are everywhere. One interesting note is that normally you don’t see German flags flying, in fact that was considered a bad thing to do an most likely meant you were a very radical person or a Neo Nazi. However, since the World Cup last year, people are beginning to fly the German flag a lot during these important soccer matches. Well, Germany won 3-2 and the hundreds in the garden that we watched it in went nuts! There were 5 TVs all around the outdoor place and everyone had a great time.
