Wall Mounted Ironing Boardsingapore

It is so nice when the pain subsides ...

Finally, it should finally go into the mountains. After I because of the heavy snow again Afraid that I do not even get away from Bremerhaven, but it went quite well, and the train was almost on time. Of Karlsruhe, we went with Martin and the car, we wanted to Schöllenental for ice climbing. After I was set off by 12 clock in Bremerhaven, we were 12 hours later, then finally at the goal and put us into the car to sleep.
should be pretty cold there this weekend, thanks Bise also quite good weather. On Friday morning was from the cold but already a lot to remember, but not from the sun. After appetizers (not frozen) with Nutella (pretty hard) I hiked to Wilerplanggen case. In order to get there one must first quite exciting with a Tunnel under the Gotthard motorway through and then get out of a manhole.
Then we drove along the stream to the waterfall. After everything was transmitted, it first went on a ramp on the actual case. Once there, unfortunately it did not look too happy. Röhrig ice, plus the cold weather made it all extremely brittle. Enter seemed to be a really good idea. So we crossed out right and it was more about the ice axes to get to the tree than the ice. Then we looked around for a while yet and looked for something nice for the next day before we paid a visit to Andermatt.
back to our bivouac did what we eat and sorted back to the car when suddenly a car stopped the driver and us we could even offered him to stay at the house. I accepted and Martin groaned. Once there, it turned out that this was a great idea, there was a mountain guide and a mountain guide candidates an old rectory converted into a guest room in the most frequently landed the stranded climbers.
went to this really hot night, the next day the quarry case. Here, too, was again not with a nice soft ice a lot. But the case was it possible to climb and the average pitch was actually quite nice. Moved down here is on the left side slopes (In terms of climbing). Unfortunately, the stone very little snow, and after some back and forth was gestolpere and after Martin had caused a very small slip, we decided to once again twice to hurry back before it went without any problems at the beginning of the fall.
The last night we spent in a parking lot, which was quite wonderful, except for the two policemen who were standing by 23 clock with full beam ahead. The next morning we were then still a bissel bouldering around. When Martin then set the second ice tool, there was such a ZSSS noise and all the pins was a horizontal crack. So we left it at Eissanduhr build and build until we stand We were on our way home. Unfortunately, the conditions
were not quite as hoped, but a great weekend and especially at last hills again, apart from my constantly freezing and thawing especially fingers and feet.

Carins & Pro Dive the Great Barrier Reef

Moin moin,
still so exaggerated in the snow with you?
So in Cairns life in the hostel was really relaxing. Air-conditioned rooms has really something as opposed to life in the car. But our car is ready, thanks to new battery and fan belt, hopefully for the Outback!


The highlight, however, and in Cairns at all was the diving! Leon and I are now internationally recognized Open Water Diver :-) It all started with a theory of teaching and learning movies. In between, one is then bound with full equipment in a 4-meter deep pool and under water has made some exercises such as blowing out a flooded mask or his buddy to supply air. That was funny, but they would finally open in the ocean!
had given they consist only of a final test of 50 questions, which I have constructed all 47 points.

So you can start after 2 days Therory and pool at last! We place on 11 with an approximately 32-strong group. And it started right with a breakfast spend. The food on the boat was Delightfully compared to our other Standardproggramm with pasta or baked beans. On the boat saw the whole looks a bit different. The first day we had our first two dives with our teacher, because you have to have to test the theory, including 4 dives with an instructor, where you repeat the exercises from the pool. So we as teachers in our group plus 6 to the bottom in 11 feet deep set and exercises done. However, we probably know this rumgetaucht within 30 yards of the boat and since we already came against the first shark. Just Delightfully! The feeling of being so deep under water and what you can see everything! Indescribable .. In the afternoon, we had another free time that we have, for example, filled with snorkeling:)
first evening I did have a game of poker and won a few extra coins.

Day 2 began on the boat the morning at 6:30 with a morning dive and then 1a breakfast. After breakfast, then a dive and we were certifizierte Open Water Diver! That is our third dive of the day, Leon and I have alone conquered. We also have the first time our underwater camera taken away, we have gemieten us and trying cool underwater shots get added. Was funny! And again something completely different, even if you keep the orientation must ne Leon ;-) and its most important remaining air in mind. In fact, if at 18 meters depth so rumtaucht and stay out of the air is far too dangerous to appear in a train. For this reason, it always appears in the buddy system, which satisfy at least a couple, so that we get in an emergency by his buddy air. If he deserves it:-D night came again the next highlight, so as we were at dinner and a trainer came in and said sometimes the deck is at the end of the boat as sharks swim behind the boat around. I'm not sure why, but behind our boat has always been a lot of fish have just as relaxed, but this time there were actually 1.5 - 2 meters large sharks. So, yes, everything was cool and we could take pictures, but all of us knew very well that for 10 minutes we have our briefing the night dive and 20 minutes later we jump into it. Already a queasy feeling .. were

As we then use our flashlight in the water, first we saw no more sharks. On our way to the coral, but we have lots of new fish or starfish seen that you can not see during the day. Our instructors were also aware of the sleeping place of giant turtles their tanks honestly a diameter of just over one meter had. Unbelievable! In between we have all put on the ground and the torch to our Brustgedrueckt so it is completely dark around us.
Now you could beat with his hands through the water and it began to sparkle .. something to do with plankton, repays cool:) Back to the boat, we have held six of us on an iron rod under the boat and our teacher has an empty water bottle messing around to annoy the sharks to attract and. It did not take long and we already have 3 orbits of these sharks. Really really weird feeling ... We all still had our flashlight on it do not pay attention to the sharks to shine in the eyes So only the abdomen, so we see them at least, otherwise it would be Stockduster. All this, unfortunately without a camera .. how have you noticed was the night dive again with our teachers:) But this was a thing of the last dive with him. After the dive gabs delicious cake and then a round of poker. So our daily routine always looked something like this:
rising, with the sunrise to dive into the water jump, breakfast, dive, cakes, lunch, dive, cake, dinner-diving, cakes, poker and schlafen.Alles natural .. with acute Weather Can you get used to it!

On the last day we have had until noon three dives, in which Leon and I are sometimes completely vertaucht have:-D, we have seen in addition to countless colorful fish, turtles, shells and sharks. Unique marine life easy! After lunch, we drove three hours back to Cairns and in the evening we had a course meeting at a club. Then they said goodbye to the cool force and from Cairns, so Leon gets his flight from Townsville to Sydney and then from Sydney to Frankfurt. So it was said last night in an Oettinger goodbye to Frank and Leon Leon .. come visit me but repays to Australia, so I can present you with the splendor of Tange :-)
Frank and I are so on time in the car, jetting We will finally equal to the outback! Before that, water containers, jerry cans and Essensvorraete now, who knows what happened ... and sometimes we see in the Outback or the phone connection, internet connection is so .. We will try to find for one to two months for a job, perhaps in a gas station in the middle of nowhere. So can that be communicating the coming weeks not really with the rest of the world ..

Schoenen Gruss and we'll see when I turn what may be hearing from me ..

People Who Suffer Cervical Erosion

Whitsunday and drumrum

Hey her home in the not so very warm Germany,
me Is it excellent! Leon's birthday but was not likely in our small group as planned celebration in Town of 1770s, but in Gladstone, a not so small town .. but you can claim the We are the only backpackers were there. Nevertheless, we celebrate a lot of fun while .

Then we are then directly to Airlie Beach, which will enable a day early because we were and wanted to save us the cost hostel, we decided to sleep the very first time all three in the car. A driver's seat, a passenger seat and one on the Rueckbank. WORST night I have ever had. You sit there nearly naked in the car and dripping with sweat out just right! Just before we had found a quiet place, we saw our first free-living lebenidige snake and therefore had to walk around a little bit afraid to discontinue or something great out there .. in the night I then slept for about an hour.
But Hostel saved :-) The next morning we went early to the hostel to have then said that we can check only by 1 clock .... So we decided just to go to lagoons as showers, swimming and sleeping in the shade.

night, then slept like baby in the air-conditioned room
:-) Then it was finally briefing for the Whitsundays! And about noon we went on ship "Pride of Airlie" a sailing ship for 32 people. The whole ship is actually a sun deck off the little dining room below. All this of course luck as we have an incredible weather. If we had not thought of, as it has stormed on the way to Airlie Beach! On the first day of our Trips we went directly to the island and our resort and have the evening with the slogan "Plastic Elastic" round off the pool and bar.
Then came the big day snorkeling and White Heaven Beach, the whitest beach in the world, was on the program. Indescribable! The snorkel has motivated me a little bit more on my upcoming dive course. Can only be good! In the meantime, you then have giant turtles and flying fish seen from the ship, but the highlight was when we saw five dolphins and we stopped right next to. Nice as they are beautiful, they also jumped three meters from the water beside us. Unfortunately, we do not take any pictures, but I hope we get even.
On the last day
went again to another and back to the port Schorchelspot
of Airlie Beach.

where we have directly packed our car and have made their way to Cairns. Glueck began as we have it right again to storm, so the car was hit by the temperature
ago enjoyable! The drive itself, however, serious:-D Yeah, you can not have it all. Due to the length of the track with about 1000km We spent 2 nights at each place of rest, or have spent a day a few hours on the beach in Mission Beach. Cool was when we were in the middle of the highway and have read a sign with "5 Mile Swimming Hole 500m right", which have w e are nachtuerlich do not miss, super soft ink. Cliff jumping fence of 3 meters. That feels good! Otherwise
is it so when you get off the car, it takes about 2 minutes until the first drops of sweat dripping from his nose and your chest and back is already soaking wet anyway. It feels a bit as if one would have been in Germany two hours as sweat and sports .. What must be mentioned is the Frank managed to actually has 2 times by a Jelly Fish or jellyfish are engraved or prejudice. Once again, despite tightening to Whitsunday and despite net in the water in Mission Beach. There are really many different types, of which up the clay and lead to unconsciousness to which the burn "simple" and only traces of the tentacle can just watch on the skin as they become red and swollen. Luckily both times he has caught the latter, and it was thanks druebergeschuetteten vinegar not so bad. As we are


yesterday arrived in Cairns we booked for 4 nights in a hostel, and tomorrow the first test and go for Pooluebungen go diving. In the evening we sleep in the hostel but then on 11, then goes fire three days on the boat and it is in open water dive 15m deep! Frank holds the position in time in the car and takes care of, if desired, to make repairs. Traderjob he has today placed the following class award, based on the weather, which today is not so good, "Today is a great day for swimming, then you sweat not the same when you come out of the water. "
Today it is cloudy namely time and perhaps only 25 degrees instead of 40th ..

Today we want to bring our car to the garage to put it to prepare for the Outback.
Otherwise, I am just over 5 days of diving! So enjoy the pictures and I must honestly say it annoys me a bit that I the pronounced winter at home do not experience.
Add then to the dive course again. back
