This was a pretty normal day for us. Tracy did a lot of mop-up following her seminar, including research planning for the group writing project and her personal research agenda here in South Africa. I went to Stellenbosch and had a meeting with the Sustainability Think Tank. Mark was at school where they had play practice (Cinderella). Catherine was at daycare (she barely naped).
The US played Brazil in the Confederations Cup this afternoon (16h00 our time). It was a predictable disaster: Brazil 3, USA 0. I watched part of the game. That's two big losses in two games against two of the best sides in international soccer. As much as I would like it to be different, it is pretty clear that the USA is not in their league.
More banking excitement: we found out tonight that our US credit card no longer works. Oops. I called the customer service line to learn that our expiration date has changed. Oy!
We received a package from Grandma and Grandpa. Thanks!
