Oranje fever
It's hard not to get caught up in the soccer fever here. People actually run the streets wearing orange on game day, if you can believe it. Basically the European championships have been going on for about 2 weeks now and team Holland is still in: first game was a tie with Germany, followed by a loss to Czech Republic, then a win against Croatia (with an assist from Czech Republic who beat Germany, keeping Holland in the tournament as a result), then last night with a win against Sweden, which was exciting and boring at the same time (like most soccer games, in my opinion). Even when you're not watching, you know there's been a goal scored, or a game won by all the air horns and firecrackers going on outside. Go Oranje!
