The European Champions have added the world title to its list of honors and proved that Spain is the world’s number one international soccer team.

Spain’s World Cup campaign didn’t start off well, as the team lost its opening match to Switzerland.

But, it quickly recovered and in beating Holland in the final game at Soccer City Stadium in Johannesburg, Spain became the first team to win the World Cup having lost its opener.

Spain’s progress saw it struggle to break down teams who faced it with a defensive mindset and relied on a succession of 1-0 victories—that means it is the lowest-scoring world champions ever.

But, it is impossible to deny that Spain is a worthy winner of the 2010 World Cup and as the team that always looked to play positively, Spain can be also be considered the tournament’s moral victors.

Choiseul Fishermen Celebrate Fishermen's Feast

Early on Tuesday morning June 29, 2010 the street of Choiseul village was buzzing with activity. All along the street one could notice group of well dressed men in some form of discussion or another. The street started to get congested as more fishermen from Vieux Fort and Laborie started arriving  to join in the celebrations with their Choiseul counterparts.

  The Fishermen's Feast started with a procession from the Fisheries Complex to the Catholic Church where a service was  held. Approximately 150 - 200 fishermen, a few accompanied by their wife were in attendance.Veteran fishermen like Wax and Bogs and the District Community Officer were also there.

After the service, the priest  conducted a short ceremony on the Fisheries Complex where prayers were offered  and the fishermen's boats were blessed.

 Afterwards it was celebrations galore where champagne, drinks and eats was offered to all invited guests.

A popular hi-fi provided the entertainment throughout the day's activities.

       While all the fanfare was happening an excavator was busily removing accumulated sand in the fish pond. Accumulaion of sand in the pond is a perrenial problem that the authorities cannot find a solution for. The sand is removed and sold out. God help our beaches.

Bon Fete Paysher (Happy Fishermen's Feast)

Today fishermen in the district celebrate Fishermen's Feast. The celebrations will commence with a church service at the Catholic Church . Afterwards, there will be blessing of the boats and speeches will be delivered by various persons of the Fishermen's Co-operatve. Then the revelling starts.
