How To Remove Formaldehyde

"Swing dancing" or at "Salsa"?

on 17/04/2010 went there with Laura and Claus first to Hahndorf to enjoy a "German" food - sauerkraut and smoked Yammy. In order to get rid of the pounds, we made ourselves then in the Belair National Park, where we met with koalas and kangaroos.

the evening went to Claus, Vu and Kylie (a friend of Vu) in the salsa bar of the Hotel Embassy. This bar had just reopened, was the visit - even if he was free - but not worth it. Salsa Salsa Bar without music? So we went on then to a real salsa club to be identified. And while we were walking through the city, I mentioned that I would like to go to a karaoke bar - of course only to look to others while singing! Da Vu and Kylie go fairly regularly to the lyrics, they dragged me directly in the next, called "La Sing". A karaoke restaurant, well filled with singing happy (talented and less talented) people. And since my friends tell me not to have sung on stage without once again wanted to be home, I did my best with the song "Sail Away" by David Grey .

I only clock about half past four in the morning fell into bed, I was not before a clock in the afternoon at 18.04. on. Was also Sunday! Unfortunately, Laura has now left again. She has received an offer for shearing sheep and wanted to Experience to take you! Must admit, yes, that would irritate me too ...

Claus and I, we then opened again to the Belair National Park, to the - to find waterfall - on cards given. Again we met a few koalas, but we found a waterfall on it - we found the case, but without water! The rain we had the last few days, then probably not enough of it. So we stood at the abyss and placed before us, we stood in the raging current of the river ...

The next week I have again worked a lot with the poisonous snakes / trained. Much time is no more, until my first course ... Even the "sexing" I was able to return to a Woma Python practice ... and I was right again. It's not that difficult if you have the first few times made!
And besides working with the reptiles, I filled my evenings with a few extra activities.
Monday was CFS Training (Fire Department),
Tuesday, I've taken in Adelaide teaching and Swing Dancing tried (which is nothing for me, too much conversation Inge, too little elegance!), Then it went with Nick to go home to Vu, to sing karaoke (which was frankly hilarious - Italians increase so much in songs ... pure),
went on Wednesday it to my salsa lesson in Adelaide and then in the Salsa Club "Calledonien" where I learned to include more salsa steps, as in my lesson and against a clock in the morning we still got a Zouk-hour.

the Thursday (22.04.) Began, we (family, Claus and I) with a long breakfast and then a shopping trip to Mt Barker and Hahndorf. In Hahn's village was then Sushi and chicken teriyaki lunch bento. As far as I enjoyed the day - very relaxing ... In the afternoon, Sonia told me that we should be dressing the caravan nice for me - Remove stress, sew curtains ... So I can set me up really. I have not thought about it yet, but even though I knew I would stay here any longer, I live still out of my backpack! Today I finally unpacked my suitcase and I set up here in the caravan! Strange feeling, another "home", to ...! Sonia and Max end of next week for six days to travel into the outback. Type two-catching poisonous snakes courses. In time, the responsibility for our animals in my hands - to put it to Sonia's words "... in good hands ...": o)

The beginning of autumn in Australia is super nice. The leaves turn to red and remain red when they have fallen from the trees. To this end, the sun shines and it is pleasantly warm. May remain fond of it.

04/23/2010
has now left us today and Claus. He travels to apply for one to two months to the East Coast to friends before he must return to Denmark. We had a long conversation before he left. His anxiety to get to Denmark to have to back and no second chance to come back to Australia, I can understand! After he is now rumgereist so long, he must now return to a life that he had been left behind. ... Scary!

to 21 clock I was then arranged to meet in the city with a few friends from the salsa Wednesday - of course, dance to salsa! First we met at Virginie (French), Antoine (French) and Jorge - pronounced "Hochhee" - much as with och h - (Mexican) with a few other friends of them, before it went to an Indonesian club. The music and the atmosphere (the few women who were there were veiled) I did not like really, so I move on to the others talked. We ended up in the "Casa-Bla-Bla, where we were finally able to dance salsa.

there went no more buses back, I stayed overnight at the home of three. And when I came the next morning in the kitchen, Jorge just cooked breakfast for all (scrambled eggs, onions, tomatoes, cheese, ham on toast). Then It went into a gym where the guys had a training game. I should play well, but was too tired from last night of dancing ... After the game, it went back into the apartment. We made our pizza, and while the oven was sizzling, I was running again quickly to IGA to get to popcorn and TimTams (special super delicious chocolate bar). Antoine prepared the projector for a few films. When I came back from the IGA, all greeted me with "There you are!" They thought I had lost my way, were concerned and wanted to call me straight. (How sweet!)

After one or two movies, we got ready for a Farwell party of a friend (you will go for a while to go to Brazil). I knew the girl does not, but was still invited. Everyone was super nice (around 25 people) and how it seemed, had any other nationality. Of course I never asked where everyone comes from originally, but that was certainly the nationality Helpful Party in my life! * Lol * At midnight we went to the Salsa Club Casa Bla-Bla. While we were standing in line, Jorge practiced with me a few dance steps. And promptly got applause! Because he knew the girl at the entrance, we were free in and we were hardly there, we even swung a leg tirelessly and without pause. Since both, but especially Jorge, super were able to have good people around us were amazed not bad, as we explained a hot bed (God, I really just wrote it? Sounds so old fashioned does not matter ...)

Back in Echunga, I met Max's cousin and her friend know . They were from overseas (England) here and travel through the country. On Sunday evening (25.04.) I then skyping with the family. All times to be seen again did really well! * Did you love *

South Australia rocked by earthquake measuring 8.3 on Richter scale

South Australia rocked by the earthquake at 3.8 on the Richter scale

Friday evening, 23:27 Australian time clock (15:57 German time clock), passed through an earthquake and a roaring Echunga. Laura and I just stood in the hallway, Brooke was in his room, Sonia and Max were sitting in the living room and Claus was in the caravan, as a thundering over us and moved away doors, windows, and then the whole house shook for about 5 seconds. Five seconds later, everyone gathered excitedly in the living room, "Was that an earthquake?" We are in a geographical / tectonically inactive area, where (perceived) life-earthquakes are not common.

Three minutes after the quake, there were already groups "I survived the earthquake" on Facebook, with over 2,000 fans. In the news now announced that the Epiczenter between Mt Barker and Macclesfield was - only 5 km distance from us - and had a magnitude of about 3.8 on the Richter scale.
entries from people in Adelaide who have felt the quake stood just two minutes after the earthquake in our web. In just two minutes, the earthquake has moved over 35 km ...

There was no real damage! With us nothing is broken (only our tormentor Roxy woke up * lol *), in others is a picture of the wall fell, but that was all - was more likely the bad caretaker, who has hung the picture * haha *

"YEAH, I got my first earthquake survived! * Lol * "

Here you will find the news (unfortunately currently only available in English).

Episode III - From the "bull rider" to the "salsa dancer" ...

After Easter, we got another new Wwooferin - Emily from England. Unfortunately, it was no help at all and totally unique. Work was in slow motion, and while they slept, she said loudly in English, so they all woke up, ("! Not her thing" was all), they could apply for interest and nothing to the question about their interests, there was no response. After less than a week, they left us again.

In recent days I've again used a lot of poisonous snakes. "Assistfeeding" at Boiga's , "tailing" at Spotted Black's and Mulga's , "sexing" of water snakes and the medication with snakes. To me the "sexing" (determine gender) to teach, Sonia took me to the Adelaide Research Centre. I was able to practice there (dead / loaded) of water snakes. The visit to the research center was simply indescribable. I could look in the archives by hundreds or even thousands of different Australian animals in jars on the shelves stood. The shelves could be moved back and forth electronically. After Sonia showed me and the researchers, such as the "sexing" works, we could try it too (it's tail takes in one hand and with her other hand a thin metal rod into the cloaca one - females = stick is only a tiny piece inserted, males = rod is inserted between 2 or more inches). After a few attempts, I could choose the sex of 100% right, so they tell me the same to a live snake - Yellow-faced whip snake - ranließ.
now I get more and more responsibility for our crew (Wwoof, students, assistants) and I am responsible to delegate the work and a few days ago, I was even allowed our students the "sexing" teach to snakes. And I've mastered quite well - apart from the fact that our students do generally quite stupid * lol *

On Monday, the fire departments Echunga, Meadows and Macclesfield had a practice together, where we "play" again with the water were allowed. I had a new application but not yet ...

Last week in Adelaide was a performance by the band "Elephant Casino" (I already reported about how I helped Brooke at a photo shoot), where we could all together. Before a nice dinner at "Noodle Kingdom" and then the appearance of the band. The rock music was good, unfortunately, they were probably not enough time to make a good sound check ...
Last weekend it was then to Adelaide - Saturday to Sunday. Laura wanted to visit a friend and invited me to one. In search of our dinner, we found the right at a sushi bar. After we queuing for half an hour for our sushi in the "Take Away" Snake (for a table we had over an hour outside on the street), it was back to Amely's (friend of Laura) Hostel, where we have the evening to ushered in the balcony with a wine. went against 23 clock then only in a sports bar (where we met Josh and George, friends of Amely) and then to a club called "Woodshed". Is the price of the club entrance, but we have the doorman bequatscht so long, why should we pay admission, until he left us so pure. Directly behind the entrance stood a (electric) Bull. None of our group dared to be the first up until I am swinging at the cops. I've not long be able to keep it, but it was fun animal. After I went up and everyone else. Then we waved us on the dance floor until we get back about half past four clock in the morning dragged into the car - where Laura and I were sleeping (Combi -! Very closely)
monitored the next morning we have about half past ten on - the pain in the back were to blame - and sneaked into the hostel. Today there should be free pancakes, unfortunately, was the mixture sau bad - baaahhh
... So it went without breakfast on the Aboriginal Museum, where we got to talking with Aboriginal museum administrator. She told us some of her life and her childhood, the problem between whites and Aborigines, which still exists. Then we strolled through a market in Adelaide (where we could watch the production of popcorn) and met an Indonesian Festival in the Park, where they gave away Indonesian Food, keyrings, Bottles and performed dances on stage.

I was this week once again in the cinema - "How to Train Your Dragon" in 3D. The film / animation is super sweet and worth it in 3D, in any case!

On Wednesday I went with Laura moved back to Adelaide - this time for the salsa hour. Nick and Vu (from Adelaide weekend with Anna) were also there. The salsa hours worked perfect and was almost too easy for me - basic steps and a turn they have taught us, and about 25 others. Our teacher, John was super funny and broke the ice with jokes. Then it went with all (based dancers, advanced and instructors) to salsa club where Nick and Vu immediately asked me to dance. Vu brought me then just in passing in all the steps and turns. This was soooooo much fun. Again and again we asked for a dance, and then the music changed to a different style. I watched couples dance as they danced close embrace. It looked so sensual that I wanted to learn. I came up with a young man (French Australian) into the conversation and then just grabbed my hand and led me into the hallway and showed me how to "Bachata" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiUxmHa6p8Y&feature = fvw) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyaxbEcvu9k&feature=related dances). Before then the club closed, I asked another young man to dance on. This time it was a dance called Zouk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNXg0ft3qD0&feature=related), but I had never danced before. He pulled me close to himself and then I let myself just cause only. It worked amazingly fantastic, and when the dance was over, Nick came up to me and said, "What was that? Do not say you have the never danced? "I was surprised by me. It was when I felt just like I have to move me - it was all automatic. I will be next Wednesday - to go back to dance salsa and I'm going to see if someone can record it, so you can see - at the latest what I mean. You see, I've rediscovered my passion for dancing and I will give this passion again. * Smile *

Episode II - Easter coastal trip

02.04. to 05.04.2010

Over Easter we have Wwoof (Claus and me) then get the days off. We used the opportunity of course, Friday's packed car with camping equipment, food and camera equipment and then it went off. We planned the route from Echunga to Second Valley and then back along the coast to Victor Harbour and Monday evening after Echunga. When we were about to jump in the car, ran Louisa works (with the dogs for hearing impaired and Friday helps us off) after us. She has a house in Goolwa (near Victor Harbour) rather close to the beach and asked us, Sunday to Monday to stay there. Sunday she had to return to the city. The rest sounded like!
Our first goal on Friday was also "Second Valley (located on the beach) and when we got there and out of the car got us a strong wind swept around the ears. And I am not just a sea breeze, I mean really, a wind / storm. After a short walk on - not as expected - very tiny beach, we decided to move on. Our next stop was "Rapid Bay," which also was on the beach. The beach was greater the camp without charge and the wind roared again. When we had nevertheless built up our tent on a tiny stain-free, the lady came out of the neighboring homes and said we should move a little further, her daughter would park their car there. We pointed out that this was not a parking lot but a camp, after she just said her daughter will make us have legs, if she comes back. Oh great! Begins the "holiday" so friendly it right on. We did not want to proceed with a destroyed tent or broken legs our trip (after saw all that is quite off), we decided to pack up and move on. Cape Jervis was then our last stop for Friday. We found a cute little old farm where we could pitch our tent, but unfortunately, the wind in the final hours of a storm / hurricane developed. The tent shook, the trees creaked and I did not sleep a wink. After three hours in the narrow rumwälzen sleeping bag, I decided to build my camp in the car. The full moon shone so bright that I do not even brought a flashlight. And when the car door behind me fell, the noise abated and fortunately I was able to sleep.

For breakfast there was an instant coffee, oats in milk with apple sauce and cheese on crackers. Not healthy, but after all campers manner. The wind had abated somewhat fortunately, so we decided to go to the beach at Cape Jervis. The beach even had access for cars, unfortunately we had no off-road vehicles ... We took a walk over the rocks in the water and met with palm-size crabs and tiny catfish-like fish
then went further to the Lookout at the ferry dock (between OFF and Kangaroo Iceland), Claus where a sea lion discovered in the harbor. So we are quickly driven down and shot some great pictures. The sea lion enjoying his bath in front of us. Then it went to
"Rapid Bay Jetty, (Pier). Here, too, offered us a nice backdrop for photographs - an abandoned gold mine. Sorry closed off and too many people were on the pier, so we do not pass on's site.
Since we wanted to spend the night at Victor Harbour, it was on the same. On "Parsons Beach" then we put up a stop again and enjoyed the walk on the rock-strewn beach and great view over the mountains and the sea. Here Claus then spied a group of dolphins who rode on the waves.
When we found our place in the Victor Harbour on a campsite, it started again to the beach with a nice hot chocolate. For dinner, we settled in a Greek restaurant - Yammy gyros and tzatziki.

The next morning I was woken with a hot cup of coffee and after I had destroyed my "oatmeal with apple sauce, it went again already exploring. The path took us first to "Goolwa" to Louisa's house. They received us very cute, showed us everything and gave us the keys. In order to waste no time, we went directly to "Granite Iceland. The small island is a bridge to the mainland and who is too lazy to run to 10 minutes over can ride on a horse-drawn carriage. We were so ...
On the island there are no cars, no shops (apart from a restaurant and a souvenir shop), but many trails which we explored. The coast ended on steep walls, or with huge rocks. After we shot lots of photos and enough gekrakselt over rocks were, it went to the restaurant - delicious barramundi (fish) eat. As we circled the island once, we went to relax on the beach at Victor Harbour. Unfortunately, I've gotten too much sun that day, so I am really bad at night and I was fortunately immediately fell asleep. We

after two nights camping now finally had a bed to sit on and a real roof over my head - I even had to take a real bath can - it was fresh and relaxed in the morning. Our first destination on this day "was Hindmarsh Iceland. The island is also connected by a bridge to the mainland. First, we reached a port with numerous small vessels, but apart from two jet ski riders, nothing happened here. To be honest, the whole area seemed deserted. The ships were abandoned in the harbor, the few isolated holiday homes had empty and the few trees that were here maybe had to give way to the empty cottages. No bushes, no trees could be seen far and wide - only emptiness. So we turned around and drove to the beach at Goolwa. As the wind kicked up the loose sand quite strong, we lay fairly close to the water - probably too close! After ten minutes we got off the first major wave and flooded our ceiling ...
After a leisurely stroll through the city at night, we made our way home.

When we reached our home in Echunga expected us not only our "family", but also our new co-Wwooferin Laura from England ...
