Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi!

So Australia it is… I’m not the starting goalie for now, but then I was playing like shit so that made sense. What did not make sense however was that as soon as it was decided I seemed to enjoy the games and practices more and that even though my knee decided to have its own little party I seemed to function better. Wonderful timing! But oh well…
Lots of things going on here, Grand Prix, Saint Patricks day, Worls Champs (obviously) and some big football game for which, I just found out, Australia has different rules then America… I knew it was a weird sport!

Yesterday was the grand opening. Not so grand as I remember Barcelona or Montreal to be but it was still cool. I especially liked the sound simulations from two guys that tried to kill a fly, did a tap dance-off and tried to get rid of a dog by dumping his stick in a taxi. Yeah sounds weird, you should have been there or be part of my family to understand that this was really funny but just trust me on it. Alltogether it took a little long, (important people that needed to talk, a list of famous aussies, and a lot of countries with flags) but it was good to get the adrenaline flowing and to point all our noses in the same direction so to say.
Tomorrow we play against the U.S.A. I think they have a good chance to win World Championships but I think we can make them fight for it really hard. So bring it on!
