Brazilians at Heart

We may be exploring Portugal, but it IS World Cup time. There is a plaza in the walking area just outside the old city where they have set up seating and a large-screen TV to show the World Cup. Even when there is no game on, there are pre-game festivities and analysis. The Portuguese love their "futebol", but tonight is Brazil's first game and the Brazilians are out in force. As we ate our dinner outside in another plaza (within earshot of the TV plaza), we watched the yellow and green shirts go buy. As the game started we were in front of the big TV. If there are any Swiss around, they are keeping a low profile.


Steve bought some popcorn and brought it back to the hotel room, but I expect we will be able to hear the shout when Brazil scores a goal.

  1. Aha! That explains why I saw people in Brazil shirts at our church on Sunday. I didn't talk to them, but I did notice their shirts.
