Paul and Fritz Kalkbrenner – Sky And Sand
In the nighttime
when the world is at its rest
you will find me
in the place I know the best
dancin’, shoutin’
flyin’ to the moon
(you) don’t have to worry
’cause I’ll be come back soon
Chorus
And we build up castles
in the sky and in the sand
design our own world
ain’t nobody understand
I found myself alive
in the palm of your hand
as long as we are flyin’
All this world ain’t got no end

De tijd is weer gekomen, tijd voor een groot feest.
Dat wil je echt niet missen, hier moet je zijn geweest.
Samen heffen wij t glas, een ode aan t bier.
We proosten op een leven vol plezier, feesten doen we hier
I’ve never heard of Paul, a “psychic” octopus in Germany until last night. After the match between the Netherlands and Uruguay, it was revealed on the news that Paul, when consulted about tonight’s match between Germany and Spain chose a mussel from a jar with the Spanish flag on it ahead of one in a similar jar bearing the German flag.
So far, Paul the octopus has been correctly predicted every World Cup game for Germany (5-0). His pick of Spain over Germany in tonight’s match has caused some alarm but German football fans should have some comfort knowing the “psychic” octopus has been wrong in the past. Check out the video of Paul’s pick of Germany vs Spain World Cup 2010 Semi-Final Match below.

As usual my FB status for yesterday was “Let’s go Oranje” to show my support for the Dutch national football team. If you didn’t notice it already, I rotated my cheer from match to match. Last match was “Hup Holland Hup” and will be again at the World Cup Final.
The match between the Netherlands and Uruguay was so exciting and the Oranje kept my heart pounding to the last seconds, especially the last three minutes. It felt like half an hour for me waiting anxiously for the final whistle to blow. I breathed a sight of relief when the match was finally over with Netherlands 3:2 Uruguay on the scoreboard.
Check out the clips below of the goals highlights and interview of the Dutch players.

Rotterdam has been preparing for Tour de France 2010. The 97th Tour de France is Saturday July 3rd to Sunday July 25th 2010 with grand start in the biggest port of Europe, Rotterdam. The city spent 12 million Euros for this event and the former mayor of Rotterdam saw it as a marketing strategy for the city. I like watching Tour de France mostly for the opportunity to see the beautiful landscapes along the racing path.

Tour de France 2010 Grand Start – Rotterdam
Video description: The choice of Rotterdam, a vast urban centre with one million two hundred thousand inhabitants, is directly in keeping with the special start of the Tour in London in 2007. The proposed project Rotterdam and the Tour, a new energy seduced us. It fits into an overall policy that aims to an even bigger place for the bicycle in the citys heart, while leaning on the popularity of the biggest cycling race in the world, the Tour de France. From the banks of the Thames to the biggest port in Europe: the same desire, the same will.
