Colombia 2 – 1 México!


This weekend I went with Carlos, Ruben and Marcos to Houston to watch the match between Mexico and Colombia for the Gold Cup 2005 quarter finals.

It was a very fun weekend: on saturday evening we ate very good BBQ and drink some screwdrivers. Later that night we went to Bar-Rio (same club I visited last time I went to Monterrey) and finally we went to David’s place and helped him out with his apartment decoration.

On sunday we had brunch at Miguelitos (a Venezuelan restaurant) and I had arepas stuffed with shreded meat an ‘guayanés’ cheese and a chicken empanada with coffee. And then we headed to the Reliant Stadium to watch an epic game between Colombia vs México.

On a side note, the NI-Eagles soccer team lost pretty badly this weekend, which mades us (Jerónimo, Chaparro, Marcos and me) feel a bit guilty for not being there, but also good because I guess the Eagles really need us!

And the quote of the day came this morning from Boris (official NI-Eagles goalkeeper):

Chaparro’s email: “…BTW, I apologize again for not making it to the game this past Sunday.”
Boris reply email: “Daniel is forgiven. The Mexicans are not. Driving out of town to watch your team lose is inexcusable.”
