Leipzig

Here’s a nice little overview of World Cup host city Leipzig. The stadium sure does sound cool: “In 1997, the city decided to build the new soccer temple inside the outer walls of the old Zentralstadion. Today, the historic remains are connected to the new stands via bridges, which many fans have crossed on their way to the trademark turquoise seats.” Leipzig will be hosting a few games I’m interested in watching. Serbia and Montengro against Netherlands, which Lyle our S&M blogger thinks will be a rout, and Spain versus Ukraine. You can get additional travel information about Leipzig or any of the other host cities right here. I’m starting to get really, really excited. If only the World Cup started tomorrow!
