I took quite a few pics of the crowd above me but you just don't get a true sense of what it really looked like inside a frame

The germans were friendly and for the most part did a great job but the crowd control wasn't so great especially after the game they seemed more concerned about keeping the supporters inside the damn pens along the way to the plaza and the train rather than keeping us safe and the scene in the train station was very dangerous and I'm surprised no one got hurt

Germany seems to have abunch of cute police chicks here is one standing on a van

a little difficult to see but the whole route to the train was lined with German Shepards many many big dogs

I thought hese two looked a little trippy

what a great trip and it's so rare to get my dad and all three brothers together for any extended period of time. The atmosphere was just incredible.

I'm in that one. If you see the wall below the tunnel right in the middle-left of that shot, I'm the one in red with the scarf in the row of four of us standing. :)
