The Road to Anfield: Do We Really Have to Take the Scenic Route?

This is the first guest post on Linden’s Pensieve. Rob is my amazing husband, who, as any true German does, loves soccer. In this post, Rob describes what we had to go through before actually getting tickets.

This is the story of finally crossing another item off my list of things to do before I die. The last item I got to check off was finally being able to take long walks on the beach with the woman I love after talking all about our day over a romantic candle-lit dinner.

A long time ago, I became a fan of the football team (or “soccer” as it’s known in the States) Liverpool FC, and since then, my desire to see a game of the greatest team playing the greatest sport in the greatest stadium has grown every year. You have probably read Linden’s blog about how much fun the game and the whole day was. But getting there is what made it even sweeter for me than actually being there.
