RWC 2011

So, on sunday night the All Blacks claimed the Rugby World Cup for New Zealand over an extremely challenging french side!  And while it was a nail-biting 80 minutes, during which my poor mothers heart almost stopped beating at no point was it a certain thing either way, the joy that all Kiwi's felt when the whistle blew full-time was almost palpable!!  The people across the road let off fireworks, and you could hear whoops of elation echoing around the neighborhood for hours afterwards!  

 I won't pretend to be a rugby fan myself, it was a joy to celebrate the country's (temporary) ownership of this sporting Holy Grail with the rest of my (rugger-mad) family!  GO THE ALL BLACKS!!!

Big hugs to all!
