T'N'T World Cup Trip 2006

Trinidad 0 - 2 Paraguay

After 3 great days in Nurnberg, we travelled south to Munich to watch the Brazil Australia game at the fan fest.

Munich is a wonderful city. Had a few litres of beer at the Hopbrahaus, then went tot he fan fest ( couldn´t get tickets for less than €500 per in the cheap seats). Got there 2 hrs before kick off and the fan fest was at capacity. Couldnät get in. So went back to Hopbrahaus (sp?) and watched it there. Great scene, great city. 24 hrs wasn´t near enough.

Then came to Mannheim for the Trini Paraguay game. Mannheim is pretty boring (its a US military base), but snuck into the trini team hotel and got pics and autographs with dwight yorke, shaka and the boys. Yesterday went to the fan fest in Kaiserslatern then the game. Kaiserslatern is a sleepy city of about 100,000 feels a lot like ballyclare though. They really pulled out the stops though, great spirit fully backing the TNT.

Tough game, TNT didn´t play as well as they did previously. Good party as alway.

Sorry for the sloppy posting we got in at 5 am. Brain not functioning properly and german keyboards (while better than czech are difficult). The pace is beginning to wear us down a bit. 1 day of Travel, followed by 24 -48 hrs of partying and then a rest day is getting tough on the old dogs...

Side notes:

I would love a slurpee today, must be the winnipegger in me
We all would kill for some water "without gas." Carbonated water sucks.
Me and warren were commenting how much we´d like to hear the news in English...
If we hear Oh-oh-eeee-oh trinidad tobago once more from one of our german hosts, we may not make it home safe and sound...
