... with the animals until sometime on Saturday.<br><br>Today I signed up for the Mountaineer Gym, a big exercise center on post. I see they have yoga class for FREE!!! so you'd better believe I'll be doing that. Lots of good classes for free. Okay, back to the dissertation. Enjoy the photos!

... told me, "is very German." The three of us sat around the kitchen table and enjoyed coffee and pie for around two hours. We stumbled and smiled through English and German and a little French when the former two failed us. This arrangement with Hannah as our landlord is going to work out very well, I feel confident. And what better way to learn German?<br><br>A little about our house now:<br><br>We have two stories, three bedrooms ...

... on infinitely upward. It looked genuinely magical, like something out of a Tolkein book. Winding around the low mountain (I would classify it as a 'cerro' in Spanish, since I don't know what to call it in English) we fianally arrived to an enormous old school house that had been converted into an antique store. The tiny town was called Schneeweiderhof and you might have a difficult time locating it on even a detailed map. But thanks to this blog you can see pictures of it ...

... differences, but it might be just chronological; we haven't known each other for long. It may take some time to create a bond. My wife introduced us a little over a week ago and cutely skipped off for us to become acquainted. It takes a little convincing to get him to go along with the plans I make on any given day, but he inevitably acquiesces in my decree and comes along. This morning we took a trip together, which I'll write about in short order.

... t like the act of learning on the job when it's something that could easily be &#8364;o$tly or dangerous. <br><br>Driving in Germany, I learn, is actually pretty similar to driving in the United States in many ways, but there are just enough differences (for example, right-of-way rules) to make it an undesirable experience, at first. A third and final reason I was somewhat dreading going to the Housing ...

... Aufenthalt. Wenn man mal von den sehr lästigen Sandfliegen unter anderem am Milford Sound absieht. Angeblich eins der bestgehüteten Geheimnisse der neuseeländischen Tourismus-Industrie!<br><br>- es wird Backpackern empfohlen, Kleidung nach Farbe und Empfindlichkeit auszuwählen. Damit reduziert man die Waschgänge alle 1-2 Wochen auf ein Minimum, statt sich mit Bunt-, Weiß-, Fein-, 30°-, 40°-, 60°-Waschgängen einen ganzen Tag zu blockieren!<br><br>- mein Lieblingstipp für den ...

... I had gotten the sore back I think from throwing my bags about all the time when jumping in and out of cars combined with sleeping in uncomfortable conditions. I saw Annika, Alex's sister, and her boyfriend quite often while I was there too. Her boyfriend is from Queensland and he has come to live with Annika in Kaiserslautern. We went to a concert together and a cocktail night. My major personal project during my stay in Kaiserslautern was to build Alex's kitchen ...

... tray. We had a drink there and then headed to the nightclub, the Nachtschicht (night shift), for some crazy dancing and what-not. For the reward of a free vodka, I danced alongside this black American dude on the bar - good times. Nothing like a shot out of a 5.00EUR bottle of vodka either: recipe for a headache. At the club, I was all the rage with the Americans who were plentiful who were all referring to me as 'Hey Aussie'. Haha it is a hard life ...

Australia vs Italy is basically what this post is going to be about. That is the only thing that has happened in the last few days that has any meaning at all to me. I got back to Landstuhl where I was staying with Alex again (same dude as last time) and I was greeted by some lovely heat and Sunday. Sunday means that NOTHING is open in Germany, especially in a country town the size of Landstuhl. So I sat there reading my book while I waited for Alex to come pick me up when the ...

... to St Goar. The slopes are covered in vineyards, castles or beautiful forest. Many of the castles were built to levy tolls on passing ships and there were many areas of the river that were deemed dangerous - many losing their lives....though it's hard to believe when surrounded by such tranquil meandering views! HAD to have a taste of the Riesling where it originally came ...
