Last day of school = Travel to Africa. i'm taking a half day tomorrow to get to the airport in time to take my shoes off, get body scanned, and hopefully avoid another case of TWB - traveling with a beard - that often results in a thorough search of my belongings. Of all the things they might check my bag for, I'm most concerned about the masa flour - tough to x-ray. Or will my red and blue face paint be more than 3.4 ounces?
It hasn't hit me yet, but on saturday i will be at a game the New Yorker claims is "expected to draw one of the largest audiences in the history of televised sports." USA vs England. They've sought revenge for 60 years, since we last played them in the 1950 World Cup. Some say it was the greatest upset in World Cup history. Now known as "Miracle on Grass." Word on the street is that the Brits are riled up. And here i am, with my US jersey, an Uncle Sam hat, a red-white-and-blue lei, and red and blue face paint. seriously.
