More Football

25 March 2006

Have spent the last couple of days hanging around Chile. Caroline´s parents arrived back from their trip to Brazil nd yesterday we went out to lunch at a traditional Chilean restaurant. Again I had a Chilean salad. At night I went off to another soccer match, this time to see a chilean league match between Union Espanola and Universidad de Concepcion. Union Espanola is Caroline´s cousin´s husband Valentine´s team. It was abit of a difference to the previous game we went to as the crowd was much smaller and the stadium was very old. I think if someone had let off a flare it might have burnt the whole place down. The game wasnt that great we left happy as Union Espanola won 1-0. It was a boy´s night out as I went with Valentine and Caroline´s dad and uncle. I think i make Union Española my chilean team as they are abit of a battler side but still okay as they wont the title last year. They are also not as popular as some of the other Chilean teams.

Today we went to a local artifical lake to check out the South American waterski championships- something I hadnt seen in the flesh before - only watched the Moomba Masters on T.V
