| Flying the flag! |
It's been many years in the planning with so many twists and turns along the way, and here we are. Shawni, Craig, James and Kirsten arrive tomorrow having travelled for days from New Zealand and we will meet them at the TGV station.
Collen and Sarah from the UK are down at the fan park getting ready for the opening game. We will be joining them for the Saturday England vs Argentina game and on Sunday, Fred will be at the South Africa vs Scotland game while I babysit, cannot wait. Martie and Neil will be in Marseille too from tomorrow.
Our hosts, Nicolas and Helene, whose ground floor apartment we have booked on Airbnb, have invited us to join their festivities with their family!
Too marvellous to join a French rugby loving family as they watch the Les Blues kick off the event....we had a 'burger night' French style with much sharing of alcohol and good rugby stories.
It was a party weekend, very late nights for the lovers of the game and apart from the mayhem at the stadium both the English game and the South African game went to plan.
