Day 2

When we arrived at Paris, we discovered that we would be flying to Joberg on a new double decker Airbus, 538 passengers.  The plane was full of soccer fans and it was a great flight.  Our time at the airport in Joberg was short and we soon were on our way down the road (on the other side) to our home base for the next 2 weeks.  We met Gavin (guest house owner) and were invited to watch the opening ceremony and first game (South Africa V. Mexico) at their house.  They are the family in the new photos.  When we went to get supplies, the Football Fans were blowning horns every where (Street corners and in the Mall).  Today we will get our other tickets and venture to Rustenburg for the USA v. England match.

Hi John and Denise, this is Eddie psoting, the brother of Tobias Langner. First of all let me apologize for not getting back in touch with you. We sure would like to come back to that invitation of yours - we've just been busy raising our hell raising kid ;-)
The reason I'm writing you (besides admitting how jealous I am...) is that I would very much like to feature your blog in our local newspaper (KREISZEITUNG - where I work). That is, if you agree. Looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great time in South Africa - Way to go USA!
