    I will be in Pipa from 17 - 19... I hear good things about Pipa.... havent heard much of anything about security though. I have not read anywhere that it was an issue in the 1st place...

    Anybody interested in a CAT2 Japan-Greece ticket in Natal?.. I know that CAT1's are available on the FIFA platform, but Im offering this ticket for $100 plus shipping if anyone is interested.

    DC United10 - I'm on that same flight to Natal and got vayama to switch to the long layover too in Miami. No way I want to chance a 30 minute layover for an international flight. The good thing about the long layover is that it's timed well to watch a bunch of games that afternoon before the night flight to Sao paulo. What day are you going? im heading down the 13th

    I have not heard about any security issues in Pipa. In fact part of the reason we are staying there is because I feel that its safer/calmer than Natal. We'll be there June 14 - 17

    yeah i have spoken to a few friends from the area of recife (3 in total) and they all mentioned great things about Pipa. party central at night and peaceful atmosphere during the day. hostel availability is abundant in that area so i will probably go ahead and book for Pipa!

    @clubamericalara since you have friends in the Recife area can they recommend good bars in Recife to watch other WC games? Please let me know if they can name a couple. Thanks.

    I am flying out on the 15th, getting to Natal the day 16th (day of the US match). I agree, watching the matches at the airport will certainly make the layover seem much shorter.

    I am indeed! Mexico and the US really. Seeing Mexico vs Cameroon and Croatia and the US vs Ghana and Germany.
    Really wanted to get Mexico vs Brazil tickets but man those are hard to come by.

    I'm really hoping Mexico make it out of the group in 2nd place, historically it seems like good odds, since the last time they didn't make it out of the group stage was in 1990 and that's because they weren't in that tournament at all.
