Gilberto arrives in Swiss hotel
May 23, 2006
Gilberto arrived in the Swiss town of Weggis yesterday. Swiss locals swarmed to meet the Brazil players as they arrived at the hotel in batches. Gilberto arrived at the hotel by car.
“I can’t believe they are right here,” said 22-year-old Hodel Ramona, a Weggis resident trying to get a glimpse of the players. “It’s so nice to have the players and this many people here in our town.”
About 50 fans and nearly 200 journalists were also watching the World Cup champions arrive, while a group of local children yelled “Brazil, Brazil” as the bus carrying the team pulled up to the hotel.
Go Gilberto!
