Toooooooor!

It's World Cup (that's like the Super Bowl of soccer) season in Germany and everyone's catching the fever. And with the American team tying against England in the match on Saturday evening, even Americans are getting into it. I myself was ready to cheer on the American team on Saturday, then turn around the next day and cheer on the German team to a stunning 4:0 victory over Australia. Well done, Germany!

Probably the best part of the Germans winning Sunday night, was the huge, spontaneous "party" everyone decided to throw in the middle of the street.  It was like going through a Puerto Rican neighborhood on Puerto Rican Independence Day times ten.  I can't even imagine what it would be like here if Germany won the whole competition.  Probably annoying for the people who don't like that sort of thing, but as for me, I like the company.

Watch as the Germans go crazy over a simple qualifying game.  It's beautiful:
