Marc and I had a lovely time at the rugby match on Saturday. Apart from the potty-mouth behind us, it was a fabulous atmosphere! I'm so pleased to say that I've now been to a Welsh rugby game!
Kick-off was at 5:15pm, this was about 4:30pm. Getting nice and dark already.
We had incredible seats, 5 rows from the pitch. (field) This huge sign says it all- "Protect This House". Rugby is serious business here!
We got our Welsh face paint on and we are ready to go! (We also had about 4 layers of clothes on!)
The national flower is the daffodil and I am wishing I would have gotten a lovely hat like this lady! It was quite popular to be dressed as a daffodil.
Rugby players up close. They are not small people.
We didn't win, but it was still fun! I did get lots of video, but as I mentioned, there was a man behind us that liked words that began with the letter F, and that was before the alcohol kicked in. So I'm not sure I can post any videos, if the one of the National Anthem is clean I will post it later. *Marc has definitely caught the rugby fever, he and his good friend Dave are going to Wales vs. Samoa next weekend.

I am so jealous! We love watching rugby when we are near a TV that has it on! We watched South Africa win the title about 2 years ago! Fun sport! I am wishing I would have to dress in four layers of clothes!
Looks awesome! Whenever we come down, I've got to go to a match!
