Waiting for the game

After a hard day of work at the clinic (actually we had a meeting Wednesday to figure out how we would make it to the game on time) where four of us left at 10 am to get back to Santa Cruz and save seats at the stadium for two hours before the game, we got to watch the Bolivian National team play the Brazilian National Team. The stadium was packed, with just as many Brazilian fans as Bolivian fans. Although we were hoping to see at least one Bolivian goal, the final score was 4-0, Brazil. However, it was amazing to see Ronaldinho y Neymar...can't wait to watch them in the World Cup!

Following the game we went to the restaurant of Dr. Vargas's brother and had the best Pique Macho we have ever tasted. Eventually we went back to our house and taught our Bolivian friends some new games....possibly involving some solo cups and cards...
