Today was a great day. I got to watch a game at the historical Maracana stadium, which has always been on my bucket list. Of course, in the 2nd game today, Brazil won 2-1 vs. Colombia, which means they are on to the Semi-Finals to face Germany. Brazil winning had a special impact on my stay ere in Rio, in that it gave me a great reason to stay out and party with all the Brazilians in Rio tonight!

Because of the partying, I think I will use the blog today for something fun. Below is a link to the an interesting article about the ‘arm folding poses’ that have been on TV for all the games in the World Cup thus far. The writers have determined who are the ‘World Cup Champions of Arm-Folding’.

Enjoy, and I will re-connect with you tomorrow evening!
