Spain Wins.....





The Euro Cup final was awesome in the main square. The entire square was packed, standing room only, and had two HUGE jumbotrons showing the game. They had some unbelievably cheesy pop group performing before the game. It was something like a Destiny's Child wannabe. We met up with our friend Mat and his wife, Melissa, before the game. I don't know any other way to describe the game and its aftermath other than... madhouse! There were definitely more german fans that spanish fans, but the spanish drowned them out in their celebration. Post-game, we decided to wander around a new part of the city, into new town... but they should just call it "hooker town". It was a non-stop barrage of nigerian nightmares trying to push their sex clubs. We must have walked at least 5 miles that night, and eventually found our way back to Old Town and ended up at the bar, Kosica. It was Sunday and dead, but still nice to meet more locals. We called it a night early around 2:30 and figured we'd get a head start today... which meant getting up at 12:30.
