Day 19; off to Semis!

Today we woke up early with a message in my phone from our new Mexican friends, the ones we met in Fortaleza. In the apartment Gaby was super excited because  argentina was playing today so he was singing the song that Argentinians sing to the Brazilian fans. We made breakfast for the boys and got ready to meet Hugo and Clemente.

Like all mexicans, they found out where the apartment was located and they knocked on the door. We started walking to the fanfest at copacabana and let me tell you, it was so hard o get there that we ended up in the FIFA fan shop!!! For someone as shopaholic as me, the store was like heaven, I saw so many things  for Leila, Joel and Xaby that Mayte told me to wait so we could buy them cheaper after the World Cup. So I will hold on and wait..

We finally found the entry to to the Fan Fest to see Argentina play. When Gonzalo Higuain scored, that place was something else, people were crazy singing and jumping! The Belgians were sad but they were like true Madridistas, they believed until the last minute. Unfurtunatly, they didn't scored so Argentina is on the Semis. 

After the game we went to a little coffeshop and I drank a chocolate bomb milkshake that was not that bomb but it was good. We also made plans for tomorrow and hopefully we will go on a tour to see the Crist and some other places Rio has to offer. 

We said good bye to the guys and came to the apartment to feed the boys (again!) and see Costa Rica vs Netherlands. It was so sad seeing Costa Rica loose in penalty kicks but this is football. FYI Van Persie still as hot as ever!!!!! Can't wait to see what will happen in the next game against Argentina. 

So far this has been the best trip/World Cup ever!

Love;
