Today was a rest day after last night. Luckily there was plenty of sport on today as the second round of the World Cup Qualifiers were being shown in the Hostel. We all got up and headed to the TV room where we met Paul and a good group all down watching the England match. We watched Walcott destroy Croatia and kept an eye on the Ireland game over the internet.
We decided to eat in the Hostel that night because they were serving curry and then showing the Argentina game on a large screen in the bar. We enjoyed the curry and settled in for the night, hitting the bed early (2am, early in BA) after our previous nights exploits!
When we got to the room our other room mate, the lovely Isreaeli Evital, came back really disappointed! She was gonna to have to leave the party room (as she called it!) This meant she had to pack tonight for the morning and needed to turn on the light. Me and Ro were still awake so she asked us to help her to decide what to pack. I thought my bag was heavy but this girl had bag after bag full of stuff. She had absolutely everything you would ever need travelling. Not only had she lots of clothes but she had two of most things. Her reason was if she seen something nice she would buy two just in case she lost the first one.
She had three piles on the floor. One for charity, one for sending items back home by post and a last pile for going into the rucksack. We went through everything. She had a big knife in her bag, a present for her brother! She had tee-shirts from probably everything that she had seen along the way! She had two pairs of everything! Shorts, belts, glasses! Crazy stuff. After an hour or so of sorting, packing, repacking, modeling and repacking she was down to one large rucksack, a small pile for charity and a carry bag full of stuff to send home. I rolled over and fell asleep, knowing that my good deed for that day was done!!!
