9 June 2010 - United for Bafana

With the 2010 Soccer World Cup only days (hours) away it was time to get the spirit going and the concept of "unite for Bafana" was born. At 12pm today everyone was asked to go outside, cheer and blow their vuvazelas for 5 minutes to show their support for the local soccer team (Bafana Bafana).

So off we went at 11h55 and wow what a crowd. We were just on the street outside the office and there were at least a hundred people celebrating and the cars driving past hooting - even the fire brigade joined in. The vibe was unbelieveable (and very noisy :)). Next thing there is the sound of drums and the official Mexican supporters team joined the crowd anbd really got things going. It was an awesome experience and one I will never forget.
