World’s Playground

Just back from the Twins game and Joe Mauer proved to be a hero once again. The crowd at the MetroDome cheered when their star arrived at the Home plate and Joe did not disappoint. Joe started the proceedings with a single home run. He also completed a second run in the eight inning.

It was a lovely feeling to be in the twin’s territory and I have tickets for tomorrow as well.

When I visit the Yankees later this year, they should be playing in a all new stadium and I am really excited to see new york as well as the ballpark. New york, is among the best places in the world and there are tons of attractions for every tourist. You might want to set aside a week to check out all the places. You can see the Statue of liberty, Emperor state building and many art museums and many other attractions in the city, besides ton of other local attractions. If you are a couple, you will like to see a different set of attractions in the city and you can find the best attractions packaged in a tour from citysightsny.com - There are loads of exciting and cheap New York City Sightseeing deals in this website. They offer a excellent range of buses, which is very comfortable to travel and also a lot of local guides to get you all the details of every place. Lunch is also included in many packages and I suggest you take up the $100 package, which is the most economic and also the best among the lot. Also, remember to pack your camera and take additional battery and memory cards.

New York City is one of the places, you should visit if you are passionate about traveling to places. I was there last season, when I was watching the yankees play at their home ground. I was invited as a guest by one of the leading journals of the state and I just got my invite for this season too. I should be traveling to new York pretty soon. if you are on your way to new york, you might want to check out some good Car Service NY before you board your flight. There are tons of services available, but most of which cost you at least a $100 bill and you might save on those extra dollars if you are on a trip to NY. I came across this service, which is really cheap and also extremely reliable. I hear from my friends that they check the flight timings and reach there on time, even if your flight is delayed by a lot of time. If you are in a group, this is a great offer, since you can get yourself a good van, which can accommodate up to 11 people and you pay just $133 for the service, which I think is extremely reasonable.

We are all set for match day 1 at UEFA, with the draw leading to almost expected results with a small surprise. Manchester United gets to have the easiest slot, since they were losing finalists last season. There was also a couple of head to head matches you might want to watch out.

Inter play against champions Barca and also Real get a bone to pick with former champions AC Milan. It would be a real thrill to watch these exciting games, this early in the competition. Also former champions FC porto are in line with Chelsea in the opening game.

I was talking to a guide yesterday, who took around the twin cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. He was a old man and had loads of information about the two cities. Me and two dozen students were on a bus for the tour and the guide was telling us something about each building in ths state!!

When we were in the Minnehaha park, I told the guide about my interest in sports and wanted him to mention all the stadiums and ballparks in the city. He gave a smile and said “No worries, lad”. We went to the metro dome last evening and also to the Target Center.

it goes without saying that I was very impressed with the metro Dome and the big air dome, which has fell down thrice in the past two decades. Waiting for the games and also to the snow!!

Cricket champions Aussies have lost their top spot in the test cricket ratings with their recent loss in the Ashes 2009 series. England won the test series 2-1 with a big win in the fifth and final test of the series. The English performed a very good task of containing the Aussies in the fourth day of the final test, with wickets crumbling on either side of the wicket.

Ricky ponting is the second captain to lose two test series in English soil and the first to do so in successive fashion. His heroic 5-0 victory down under is totally eclipsed with this feat.

England Win Ashes

English All rounder Freddie Flintoff hangs his boots with the end of the test series and will play one day and 20-20 cricket with England. It was indeed a warm farewell for the Englishman.

In many cases, beauty lies in the eyes of the observer, but it also rests on the creativity of the artist. You can make a home beautiful by presenting it in a proper fashion. I was amazed at some of the collections present at Edberg Marketing. They are a A to Z marketing company, who deal with real estate. If you are a real estate business, you can avail their floor plan online service and benefit from their service. They have shown good creativity in the form of their listings and the ideas like 45 feet photography really appeal to the eye of the people who watch your ads. A good real estate video can bring in a lot of leads and the possibility of a sale is increased multi fold.

I was also amazed by the brochures in their website, which enclose a nice elevated photography and spices up the view of the apartment or property. Since they are a A to Z company, you can get all work done by a single company like brochure design, photography and also marketing, which makes it a lot easier. For instance, if you were to include a vertical brochure, the photography could be tailor made for the same.

One of the places I first saw on my arrival to Minneapolis was the TCF bank stadium. The stadium looks great and is still under construction. With less than 3 weeks to go for the opening of the stadium and the first match, I am all set to buy tickets for the first game. The stadium is supposed to house a crowd of about 50,000 with possible expansion about another 30000. That leaves enough space for the entire college crowd and also a little room for the visitors.

On a ironic view, it is often considered a practice to house the entire stadium with home crowd and literally very little away fans [Thanks for the information from wikipedia] With the first game against Air force falcons, it is all set for a tough fight. I am trying to interpret the numbers, but in vain, although I have done many inquiries on the match tickets. I ll be there on the 12th Sep for the first game. Go Gophers!!
