EM 2012

Europe is crazy about their football/Fußball/soccer...

The Europameisterschaft was just starting when I was in Eygpt.

The Egyptians didn't care much about the games, but because the majority of the hotel guests come from countries playing in the EM, it was a big deal!

Cakes!

Public viewing!

The Englanders were the most into the game, not too many Germans were vactaioning that week.

German's are crazy about their Fußball, but also about their country.

Everything is schwarz, rot, gelb!

(black, red, yellow)

I went with a group of about 10 to the public viewing in Offenburg, there were probably a couple thousand people there. We had really great seats until people started standing in front of us.

Of course I had to get Curry Wurst!

Deutschland 2:1 gegen Dänemark

In Freiburg after Deutschland beat Griechenland in the Viertelfinale 4:2, people were driving through downtown honking and waving flags. It was incredible!

Go Deutschland!
