Sssstttooorrrrmmmerrrsss! RUGBY TIME!

On April 28, Friday, after History and Culture class, a group of five of us journeyed out to Newlands Stadium for the Capetown Stormers vs. the New Zealand Crusaders rugby game! :) It was my second and last fugby game that I got to attend while in South Africa. But this one was different than the Sharks game that I went to earlier in the semester, because the five of us got tickers in the standing room section only! :) I didn't really know much about this area, but after being in it, I swear it was like the hooligans section! There were so many crazy fans, cheering at the top of their lungs the entire game! HARD CORE STORMERS FANS! :) There were so many posters for the players and flags flying, all showing Stormers spirit! I was so close to the filed, I could literally feel the action! :) The Stormers won the game 42-14, so of course, we celebrated later that night! Virginia picked us all up from Newlands and brought us all home. Her and Berna have been amazing...so hospitable! Got home about midnight, and even though I had to wake up about only 4 horus later for shark cage diving, I tried to go to bed, but there was so much excitement from the night and anticipated excitement for the next morning! :) So until next time...
