Kick the Football

I'm a huge fan of soccer and over time, I've got to see many stadiums and matches. I forgot about these picture files until yesterday when I was going through some old stuff. These aren't all the games I've been to either. I think I have thousands of 3 x 5 photos of soccer matches all over my room at home. I took all of these photographs, I think they're pretty good, but let me know.

Wembley Stadium under construction. London, England. Summer 200?

Amsterdam, Holland. July 2004. I was walking through Amsterdam looking for a place to eat breakfast and I stumbled upon the Ajax fan shop. Inside on the back wall they had the signatures of former stars like Guilit, Witsche, Rijkard, and a lot more.

United States vs. Paraguay

International Friendly in Columbus, Ohio

Summer 2003:

Champions World Series

Manchester United vs. FC Barcelona

Philadelphia, PA

A few years ago we had season tickets in Columbus, but then Dad and I realized the Crew were pretty bad. I've been to many games there, lots of photos, but no more season tickets.

FIFA Women's World Cup, 1999

United States 3, North Korea 0

Photographs of Europe

I have done a lot of traveling. Most of it has been in western Europe. This post is kind of like a "best of" collection of photographs I took in Europe. I just picked these out of what I have saved on this computure. At my house I have stacks of photographs that I took in Europe and Australia.

I actually think that these are pretty well done. But let me know how you feel about them.

I took this in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland. See the track running up the hill? Diary farmers use it to move things up and down the mountain.

This is probably my favorite photo of my favorite place in the world- Engleberg, Switzerland.

A Farmer. Engleberg, Switzerland.

I took this inside of a cable car traveling up Mt. Schilthorn.

Outside of Munster Cathedral, Frieburg, Germany.

A German town on the River Rhine.

This is Kinderjijk, Holland. This town has been powered by windmills for hundreds of years, something for all of us to think about.

Isn't this just the stereotypical Dutch girl?

The River Seine, Paris, France

Paris from maximum zoom on top of the Eiffel Tower. It shows how massive the Arc de Triump is, and I love how you can see how the trees line the streets.

Omaha Beach- beach of the D-Day invasions. Cannes, Normandy, France.

A little street cafe in Bath, England. I spent my 16th birthday here. It was a great day.
