Christchurch, Capital of Rugby

We arrived to Christchurch at 3am in the morning – it was freezing cold compared to +30 at Gold Coast beaches J I actually didn’t expect that New Zealand can be so cold and that we will actually ski later on…

Having browsed some cafes in the morning we went to meet Andriy’s friend Andrew with his wife, 7-months old daughter, and wife’s mom. “How’s your work?” – “It’s average.” – the attitude is so hilarious… Who cares about it? It’s just a temporary stuff and it will fix itself at some point J

Our evening was full of Rugby. First we went to see New Zealand Warriors playing in the National Rugby League – very tight game, Warriors lost by one point in last minutes, and I have got some good knowledge on Rugby League rules. Good enough to enjoy the game J

Peak of the day or more of the night was All Blacks vs. South Africa. We woke up at 2:30am to see an amazing game! All Blacks were losing 14:22, before the late equalizer and winning try 30 seconds before the final whistle… Such a turnaround! Such an atmosphere! I really started enjoying Rugby…

Wow! All Blacks team is my favorite! My brother usually tags me along every rugby season and we'll watch every match we like. While I'm fascinated with those physically-fit and gorgeous men playing in the rugby field, he's busy murmuring, cheering and shouting for his favorite team. He's really a die hard fan of rugby games that he's always up-to-date in every game schedule. We're both hoping for the best rugby league clubs' games for the coming year.

Thanks for sharing this interesting post in your blog! Keep them coming!
