The Wanderlust Librarian | Levi's Stadium

Scout and I got a chance to visit Levi's Stadium for its inaugural game. But it wasn't for the 49ers.... it was for a different game of football. It was for a soccer game for the San Jose Earthquakes Vs Seattle Sounders! 

Military show skydivers came down onto the field
with the biggest flag I've ever seen! 

You're reading the blog of a girl who doesn't watch a lot of American football. In fact, the reason why we went was only to see the match. We had some great seats and for the inaugural game, there were a lot of people who just showed up in Niners gear. We sat near a handful of people who were not familiar with soccer. It was breaking our hearts that a lot of the people there were there JUST to see the stadium and not the soccer game. 




Here is my fast review of the stadium: The seats were comfy, there was ample row space and the seats were awesome! If you get a chance to go to a game there, definitely make it happen! 



Enjoy the pictures!

Still Life| Here Comes The Soccer Mom !

Are you a soccer fan? I am originally from Iran, and lots of Iranians are very passionate about their soccer teams. I was never a fan of any sports until a few weeks ago. 

My daughter is taking soccer and she has turned me into a soccer fan.

I tell you, watching a bunch of rookie third and fourth graders playing soccer is highly entertaining. Her team is called Fire and they are anything but fire. I love watching her play. She has fun playing soccer. She also ducks every time the opposite team kicks the ball very high.

I constantly yell instructions to my daughter from the sideline.

The crazy thing is that, I don't have a clue about how to play this game but that doesn't prevent me from yelling instructions to my daughter. My poor daughter constantly shushes me to no avail. 

 I tell you, I have turned unintentionally into a soccer fan.

I just need to learn a bit about this game and I will be all set.   

I got to read this book I think:

How soccer works
