Hello from Philly!

I decided to take a long weekend and come to Philly to play tourist and take in some USWNT. Tonight was the semifinals - the first match was T&T vs Costa Rico and the second was US vs Mexico.

First, the best way to get to and from PPL Park from downtown is the train. Once at the station in Chester, there was a shuttle to take you to the stadium and it took you back after the game. No hassle with traffic or parking, just great! My seats happened to be right behind the largest of T&T's supporter groups and included several player's families. Soon everyone in the section were T&T fans, cheering every touch. In fact, Hutchinson's father was there and you should have seen the pride and joy when his daughter scored. The ending wasn't what T&T wanted but they still have 2 more chances to make it to the World Cup.

The US tsunami swept over Mexico and the scoreline could have been worse for Mexico if not for a friendly crossbar and post.

The finals are Sunday. So tomorrow I'll visit the Liberty Bell, eat cheese steak, and do other touristy type things.

USA!
