2010 Roadtrip

I've always wanted to go to a World Cup. Now the World Cup is coming to me. For 6 years me and my son, Dylan, have planned our 2010 Roadtrip. 10 games in 10 days, taking in all 10 stadiums. 43 hours of driving and over 4000 km's. The plan is to post stories, pics and videos every night. My daughter, Shea, will join us for some of the games. P.S. My 7-year old is cross that she doesn't get mentioned anywhere. So....Megan will come to watch England vs Algeria.

22 June - Bloemfontein - South Africa vs France

GOING OUT WITH PRIDE

That was a hectic day. Full of emotion. Seeing Bafana go out hurts hugely. But at least the French have finally been eliminated...8 months late. I'll let the pictures do the talking for now. Suffice to say that this was head and shoulders the best match we've been to so far.





I was interviewed by Aden Thomas on CapeTalk this morning. Have a listen.
