The Rugby World Cup - quarter final

It has been quite difficult to watch The RWC games live with the kids because of the time difference between here and England.  Last weekend the All Blacks played against France. It was on from 2:45 in the morning... Matthew was flying in around 1:30 so he told me he would stay up and watch the game. I set my alarm and managed to drag myself out of bed and joined him. 

Surprisingly when they started the national anthem of NZ, someone got himself up and joined us. 


He stayed up for the whole game! It was such an awesome game to watch. Lots of tries and excitement. Even though by the time we put him back to bed it was almost 5 am...


The next game is timed slightly better. New Zealand vs South Africa this coming Saturday at 11:00pm. We are arriving back from Bangkok at 10:30pm so hopefully we can make it home before then. 
Go All Blacks!

    In this house everybody had to get up to school and work the next day - so the only non-Kiwi (me) in our family had to stay up to keep track of the happenings..!
