Hello Estrellitan.

Sad that the Japanese went home so fast!
They played very well - said the German press. They had a lot of bad luck.

Well; I think you can't really say that Klose and Podolski are Polish. Especially not Podolski. He's 100% "kölsch" (=from Cologne). Many Polish people came to the Rhine and Ruhr area more than 100 years ago to dig for cole. Only some family names show their ancestors came from Poland.

Till 9th July you can watch German weather on TV.
Very hot and mostly dry since the Football Worls Championship started.

On Tuesday the German team will play in Dortmund. Hope the team will leave earlyer! I live 1km away from the airport. Normally planes are not allowed to start and land during the night. Last time, the German team's plane started at 1 o'clock during the night ...
But it will surely be loud all night if Germany wins!
