Rugby World Cup 2011

On Friday my mum, dad, Liam and I went to the All Blacks v Japan it was a good game and it was a wonderful experience I wish I could go again. It was funny because there were these boys sitting behind us and they were being really silly and funny like one of them kept shouting at the top of his lungs “GO JAPAN, GO JAPAN!” it was really amusing. I can’t remember what the score was because mum and dad took Liam and I home 5 mins earlier so we wouldn’t get squished or stepped on. It really was a great experience.
