Colombia took their foot off of the pedal in the second Extra Time period, they had all the momentum.

Maybe it’s England’s year, after all.

But Sweden won’t be easy.

I’m happy for Pickford, though, since he plays for Everton.

Prefect (sic) Müggelsee day I tell you that!
coming and going by bicycle.

Yesterday I rode my bicycle at Tempelhof Airport (now a park).
27 is my Birthday.
This guy stood on a motorized wheel while making a video. Was moving quick too.

Sunday my daughter played table soccer at an outdoor party. Her team won 8 to 3, she was the goalie and only girl.

Saturday we went to the large fountain because a couple of days before I watched them cleaning it. I went around and picked up the garbage when I noticed it after this photo (just saying, the breeze blew it there). pic 2
Water was really cold but we got drenched anyway and was great fun.

Next are Quarter Finals.

Have a Happy Fourth of July!

Today we walked the puppy to a bench by the water to have ice-cream, when these swans were going past us my daughter called to them; schwani schwani schwani! - and then they turned our way and came right to us.

Then on the way back home I saw a little red pirate ship I wanted to take a picture of. So I asked my family to wait while I stepped over barrier tape that sealed off the area by the water there due to construction. I took the picture and then I noticed right there was a sunken treasure ship. Called my daughter over and told her we are going back when we get a rope and a hook.

Why ask? You answer your own question. And, I agree with you. All of it— boring. But soccer... more so. Having been dragged to World Cup parties..... sorry. A decision made to not live life as a spectator sport-— now that is not boring. And, a matter of taste which no-one is arguing.
