Na een autorit van 2 uur met alleen maar regen en onweer eindelijk aangekomen op het vliegveld in Frankfurt. Direct ingecheckt met het idee iets te gaan eten bij de gates. Helaas is er niet veel te beleven op dit gedeelte van het vliegveld en dus ook bijna (niets) te eten. Een broodje en wat noodlesoep en we kunnen er weer tegenaan. Vliegtuig staat al klaar, is echt enorm groot. Tom echter, vindt het vliegtuig niet zo erg groot uitzien.... read more

Ismet itt a majus, es vele a majus eleji hosszu hetvege. Gondoltam, ismet elutazom - ezuttal Frankfurtra gondoltam. 4-e penteken munka utan mentem a Heathrow-ra metroval, es ugy gondoltam, minden rendben van, idom is lesz meg enni egy kicsit a repteren. Aztan amikor epp vege lett egy szamnak, amit hallgattam, meghallottam a metro hangosbemondojat, ahogy mondja, hogy a celallomas Ruislip, ami nem a repter. Gyorsan kiszalltam, atszalltam egy, a masik iranyba meno metrora, es visszamentem Acton Town-ig, ahol a Piccadilly Line ketteagazik, es kozben gondolkodtam, hogy vajon rossz metrora szalltam, csak nem vettem eszre, vagy jo metrora szalltam, es menetkozben valtozott meg a celallomas.

So reflection time again! What have I gained from my past 7 months in Australia? A healthy respect for football keepers (soccer goalies) after badly spraining my wrist prevented me from working a renovation job I had just started, a love of road trips and waking up at sunrise to go swimming on the beaches before sneaking onto camp sites to shamelessly use the facilities without paying for them, an affirmation that despite the fact that a town may be half hippie/half surfer, it’s still half hippie and is at great odds with my blue collar heritage. I enjoy barbequing with friends in the park, and like getting out into the clubs once in a while with them for a good time, I can survive on little money and even thrive after throwing myself across a ... read more

I woke up to a chilly, windy and gray day. I spent the morning travelling on the train. I am pretty sure that I can now make my way to the Hauptbahnhof without getting too lost. I also went back to get my movie. After doing some research it appears that Bluray’s are separated into 3 regions (A,B & C) however most Bluray discs can be played in any region. Not the one I wanted however. I ended up getting the DVD because at least I know how to change the region code on a computer, (also it was cheaper). For a change from supermarket fare I decided to go to McDonald’s for lunch. It was very expensive!! €6 for a Big Mac combo!! I went to the Architecture museum in the afternoon. It was interesting, ... read more
