Here is our story, the story of how we experience life on the other side of the water. We all have stories, and here I share our sense, the good, the sad, and at times the reality that makes us flinch.
It is now a week we are here. Things work differently here certainly like for example coffee to order. It's like a long white, long black or white skinny but no filter coffee. You are looked at as if you come from Mars. I may have mentioned that coffee definitely better here than in South Africa, it is even better than wimpy sense. They cuppichino's is very nice, no cream, but if you get it seems like there is thick cream. We did some driving around and you can not believe how beautiful nature here (not that it is not beautiful in South Africa), but within a half hour drive paths with the same scenery as in Magoebaskloof, or even as a game reserve . The natural change very rapidly here. We even rode in Kommetjie or so so we thought. This is so the way to Geelong and the nature and the sea is incredibly nice and clean. The sea was a bit rough because we wanted the ferry back took, but I did not want to shake it. We will be a next time with the ferry back to Melbourne. That in itself should be an experience, especially for children, and since I have Alex in Greece between the islands with ferries traveling. The people look nice but you askance when you order something and you see them with a blank face back. Sometimes they talk so fast and even so obscure that you can not make out what they told you no. Here people eat in restaurants not like we used to, but more types of gourmet cafe or take away meals. The areas where the big people food ordering and everywhere tables and chairs to sit. This gets the knives and forks, not away. People sit there and eat and do their things further. Not like us who buy take aways and go home immediately. Here some people in the "foodhalls". It is clean and tidy. We have a running club for children found with professional coaches. It costs you extra for not coaching, it's part of the club fees. As people focus not on performance, so if today you just do not feel like it then you just muddle on, next time you perform again. acqua basel Here they look more at your personal best against which we are accustomed to one another. Here are all rewarded and not just the best ones. The children entered the week at school and is looking for a house in earnest. So more about this later.
