Move Zip Around
Listening to Stephen Stills on the bus from Storms River to Knysna put the past few hours really into perspective. We were all literally "Treetop Flyers." Zipping from tree to tree with our fearless guide Maurius was an awesome adventure that was unique to South Africa that I don't think anyone will forget. Especially Brian, who became especially close with one tree that will leave a zipline battle scar to tell his friends back home!
How World Class This World Cup Really Is
Chris and I were discussing earlier today how incredible, for the most part, the level of soccer has been throughout this tournament. In previous tournaments there have been some pretty terrible games. Bad goals. Bad defending. Poor passing. But not this tournament.
After seeing a thrilling 2-2 draw between Nigeria and South Korea in the beautiful Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban cemented this fact to us. This game had some of the most creative, innovative and exciting attacking we've ever seen. The first touches have been pure quality. And the tackles have been ferocious.
Perhaps the only thing more memorable than the vuvuzelas at this historic World Cup will prove to be the high level of display here in South Africa.
