Soccer fever!

So I awoke this morning to sounds of vuvuzelas (those plastic trumpet shaped horns you see in the pics below, that make a lot of noise!) resonating round the city, in fact I think they were being played all night long! 

Today's the big kick off day for the Soccer World Cup and everyone is totally soccer mad, wearing their countries gear, flags, wigs, the works... the atmosphere is amazing! The whole country is basically shutting down at midday in preparation of the Opening ceremony and first game. It's sure to be an AWESOME weekend here, I'm so excited and so I'm wishing you a happy one too!!

Happy Monday

Happy Monday to you all! Did you have a great weekend? I hope so! I had a very relaxing weekend which was very much in need. Well, I have to report that Soccer fever is running high and the excitement is building, just 11 days to go until the World Cup Soccer begins here in SA! There are soccer adverts on TV non-stop and on billboards everywhere, fans are wearing Soccer shirts, plus local supporters have started adorning their cars with South African flags. Just take a look at my sister's car below! In fact I even spotted a Swiss and Italian flagged car this morning. It's awesome to see everyone getting into the spirit.

To get us all in the mood, I'm going to be having a special South African week next week on my blog, featuring all things South African and a fabulous giveaway too, so be sure to stay tuned!
