Welcome to our Road to Germany Blog

Hello?? Is this thing on??

So this is what a Blog is!

I thought it would be a nice idea to document the adventure that Shane and I will soon embark upon.

This whole trip was totally unexpected. Having been unsuccessful in the initial FFA round for those precious world cup tickets, I had resigned myself to sleepless nights in front of the telly watching all the action of Germany 06 unfold on SBS.

But.... on the 6th of April at around lunch time, all that changed - I got the email Congratulations etc etc. My immediate action was to call Shane and the ball began to roll.

So after a number of hectic weeks, booking flights (thanks to Holly from flight centres) and paying for the FFA camping package, we are off to the world cup to see the socceroos do us proud. It is still hard to believe that we will actually be there in person!

I hope we will be able to post on this site regularly while we are on our journey. If not, then I will have wasted about 30 minutes of my life setting this page up.
