Viva la Italia!!!

So, wow - what a party! Must say, they played pretty well. This is a picture of the crowd at the big screen in Florence, it went off! For one day - everyone was Italian! Made some friends with locals where i was sitting and well, it just went off. I have some footage of the winning goal and all the flares and dancing straight after, but its too big to put on here. The night went on with the biggest street party i'd ever seen! Not even the amount of tourists in summer beat it! Complete chaos - but all good fun, some nakedness, alot of water - no beer fights and no cops anywhere! Drummers popped up everywhere and i felt like i was at Rio carnival or something! Its probably the same everywhere - but the white stripes' hit single seven nation army was the main tune everyone loved to sing - u know - dern, dern-dern-dern-dern- dern, dern. I am pretty sure that the majority of the masses have no idea where that tune come from - they prob think its the theme for the Italian team!

I cried when Italy unfairly beat Australia a week ago, but last night made up for it. Its good to be in a winning place.
