How i wish i could be there. I am in the Africa continent but in the north side! What a shame that i am so near yet so far to witness one of the most celebrated game ever for human kind.
Sometimes i think if countries could put aside their differences at times like this to enjoy a great game of football, why cant wars be avoided and problems be settled over a game of football? That will be excellent.
Watched the opening ceremony and i realised that there wasnt anything fancy like the one did by the Chinese in the Olympic. Africa gave us what used to be the joy of the human kind before we cleverly invented all kinds of gadgets and gizmos that ended up not saving our time, but instead taken all our time and left us yearning for more time in hand than ever. South Africa gave us songs and dances. These were what our ancestors used to enjoy and kept everyone connected, physically and emotionally.
And now, let the first game begin in Johannesburg - South Africa vs Mexico! And i am so happy that i do not need to wake up wee hours in the morning just to catch a game because i could not watch the game in the same time zone of the organizer! Wee!!
