Durante el ultimo mes, todos en mi familia hemos estado sufriendo de fiebre amarilla.
Aunque en realidad tuvimos que aplicarnos la vacuna contra la fiebre amarilla que es transmitida por los mosquitos en algunas partes de SurAmerica, de todas formas
resultamos contagiados con el entusiasmo que inspira la camiseta amarilla de la
seleccion de Colombia.
During
the last month everyone in my family has been suffering from yellow fever.
Although we had to get vaccine against yellow fever transmitted by mosquitoes
in some parts of South America, we got infected with the enthusiasm that inspired
the yellow shirt of the Colombian Team.
Despues de mucho planeamiento, un poco de logistica y algunos ahorros, decidimos seguir, literalmente, paso a paso a la seleccion de Colombia que esta participando en la Copa del Mundo FIFA 2014.
After
much planning, a bit of logistics and some savings, we decided to literally follow
step by step the selection of Colombia that is participating in the 2014 FIFA
World Cup.
At first it was a dream to attend the World Cup in
Brazil. The World Cup is where all of us want to be. Fortunately things went well, all the planets
lined up, and we finally went, conquered, and returned home. We were very lucky
to attend the first four games of our Colombian team, support them, and see
them win every one of them.
Disfrutamos
de un clima maravilloso, con unos pocos mosquitos, pero con un ambiente festivo del
mundial de futbol que se crea con todos los fanaticos de diferentes partes del
mundo. Tambien de una gran variedad de comida preparada con una gran diversidad
de ingredientes. Ademas y como no podia faltar, tambien mucha inspiracion y algo
de tejido a mano con aguja de crochet. Finalmente de la calidez de los
brasileros especialmente de los amigos
que ya empezamos a extrañar.
We enjoyed a wonderful climate with few mosquitoes,
but with a festive atmosphere of the World Cup that is created with all the
fans from around the world. Also, we ate different types of food prepared with a wide variety of ingredients. Furthermore, there was too much inspiration
and some crochet could not be absent. Finally, we enjoyed the warmth of
Brazilians especially friends who are already beginning to be missed.
Ahora la
Seleccion de Colombia esta entre las mejores ocho selecciones del mundo con Alemania,
Holanda, Belgica, Francia, Costa Rica, Argentina, y Brasil. El proximo partido
se jugara en la cuidad de Fortaleza el
viernes de esta semana. Vamos a estar pegados al televisor para seguir apoyando
a nuestro equipo .
Now The Colombian Soccer Team is among the top
eight teams in the world with Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, Costa Rica,
Argentina, and Brazil. The next game will be played in the city of Fortaleza on
Friday this week. We will be glued to the TV to continue to support our team.
♥ Colombia to win or lose Brazil ........ May it be what God wants. ♥
