We returned from Portugal just in time to watch France win the World Cup!  A big screen was set up in the main square in town and it was a huge party.  We met some of our friends to watch the game, and our friend Adam from Greenville was in town for work so he came along too.  As soon as we got to the square it started to rain, but that didn’t stop us!  The atmosphere was so much fun and every time France scored a goal the crowd went crazy with horns, dancing, and colored smoke bombs.  The rain let up, the sun came out and France won!  My mom was so sweet to take the kids back home and feed them and put them to bed while Ryan and I went out to celebrate with our friends Adam and Katie.  We walked around town a little bit and it was crazy everywhere we went; people were even in one of the big fountains in Place de la Victoire splashing and cheering!  After having kebabs for dinner, we wound up at a bar that had a crowd standing outside singing and dancing….they even played the song “We are the Champions”.  It was so much fun and definitely a memorable experience!  Allez les bleus!
