After the weekend, the topic of every conversation is...
Where were you for the opening game?
My response in image and word:
Some friends and I packed up early from work and made our way to Pretoria CBD, vuvuzela's and yellow gear in full force!
We headed to Burgers Park in the heart of the city centre, where the Tshwane Leadership Foundation is hosting a fan park and urban change initiative known as the 'better world village'. They're screening all the games there and providing activities, outreach, art workshops and social conversations during the World Cup. (will blog about it soon!)
Miemie and I were in 'photo-docu heaven'! The colour and imagery and beauty in every moment made us extreme snappers!
When we weren't snapping we were seriously swept up in the singing and dancing. I loved every minute of learning words and stomping my feet!
Highlight of the day was the moment South Africa scored the goal, and singing the national anthem in full force united with thousands of Mzansi!
I love the energy, the unity , the colour and the opportunity to share and celebrate this country.
And above all, to hold onto and share these experiences and remember them, because when it's all over we need to build on this!!!
