Futsal Tournament

Today instead of going to school everyone went to the Futsal court to have a tournament between all the schools of Veranópolis. Futsal is indoor soccer but with boundaries so you can't make wall passes. I didn't know this was happening until we pulled up to the Futsal court instead of school. All the players were so amazing it blew me away. I didn't play, because I would've been completely destroyed, and consequently our school did well! Both boys and girls got second place out of about 5 schools. Both lost to a school called São Luis but it's not really fair because São Luis has about 1,600 kids and CETEC only has 90. It ended about noon and I'm free for the rest of the day. It's really nice. 

At 9 there's the infamous GRE-NAL. It's the game between Gremio and Internacional who are huge rivals since they are both from Rio Grande do Sul. We are going to watch it at Guto's house and I'll be sure to say who wins. AND on sunday we are actually going to a Gremio game! They will play São Paulo at Gremio's home stadium in Porto Alegre. I'm unbelievably excited for this. My first legitimate Brazilian futebol game. It's gonna be crazy.
