Footy!

Our plan today was to play American football. Clearly Sarah and I interpret the game “football” differently. Sarah solidified her understanding when she showed up at the field with a rugby ball. For the last couple weeks, we have been promoting the “big game”. There seemed to be a lot of interest but not enough to get someone out of bed on a rainy Sunday afternoon. So there were two.

My game face is on. We ran a few laps and practiced kicking the ball back and forth. I forgot how talented I am. And Sarah is no slouch either. Man, we were hot. Maybe we should try out for some Korean team.

Sarah nearly knocked my camera out of my hands with this ball. Nice kick Sarah. Now do it in a real game!

Sarah is always hogging the camera. Maybe she really is ready to become a sports star. I could feed some rumors to the trash magazines. Boy do I have the dirt on this one!

Yes here I am just holding the ball. You can see how green it is here in Korea in November. Behind me is the pond where the ball successfully landed after I kicked it. Don’t worry, I can swim and I managed to get the damn ball before it floated away.

Did I mention we had a sponsor? All proceeds from the game went to pay for Sarah’s flight back to Australia for Christmas. We even had a little money left over to pay for new uniforms.

Sarah reaches for the stars. Here you can see her stretching before our the 20 laps around the pond. Don’t strain yourself Sarah!
