Day 159- June 2- AFL at the "G"



Day 159-Saturday, June 2- AFL at the "G"

We went to the Melbourne Cricket Ground (simply known as the "G") to see our very first Australian Rules Football game! It was a lot of action, a lot of rules we did not understand and a lot of fun. The ITA (International Teacher's Association) arranged for the tickets but we arrived late. So we wandered around the outside looking for the group, then convinced a ticket supervisor that our group had become split up and went in looking for them. The "G" seats over 70,000, so we did not find them. We sat and watched the game and met up with the group later at a restaurant in Chinatown!

You haven't answered the most important question... What team are you barracking for? If you say Collingwood I refuse to have you stay with me...

(Maybe I should have said which team are you rooting for so the Canadians can understand me, but that would just make me laugh!)
