Rockstar Short Poofy Dresses

AUS OPEN - PART II (DAY 711)


Melbourne and 'magic. Or rather, I would say that the Australian Open are magical.
For the second time in two years, my friends and I flew to Victoria to enjoy the best tennis of the world, and again, and it 'worth it.
The atmosphere that we live in Melbourne in two weeks of the tournament and 'something fabulous, like air you breathe and you (me) reminds us how much you love the sport.
It 's not only go to the Rod Laver Arena to watch the match: and' move from Federation Square, soaking up the sun and watch the games on the big screen. And 'cross the main corridor, to your sides while parading the banner of the samples who won this tournament in the past.
E 'visit all the stands, have the good fortune to listen to Jim Courier in a meter, and' seeing the training of the number 5 in the world like sitting on the couch. And 'go see Rafa Nadal one step away from you, and confirm that it is' a great (and humble) sample.
not forget the tennis that we live, the emotions, the screams, the "vamos Rafa!", The challenge, the matches, Nadal, Australia's defeat, Pennetta in doubles, and opportunity 'to see the first set of the lot more 'long history of ever Grand Slam women's coach thanks to a friend that you can only see from afar and you're wrong, given the pressure of the game.
E 'spending $ 4.90 for watch the game on the plane, on a mini-screen in three, screaming and cheering for her opponent ... 's Italian (the player coached by our friend) ...
and 'curse' cause the signal and 'gone to the match-point with Glo who throws a punch to the seat (lol) waking up in front of the passenger. E 'follow the game on' iPhone, taxi, get home and see his friend still alive: see the match end in favor of Schiavone, and feel a bit 'sad for him. Carlos Grande, great job anyway!
Bello tennis, beautiful two weeks of tennis in Australia: come home, turn on the TV and you enjoy the matches live while the Old World wakes up.
Or follow up Skype to work, chatting with your friend: D Bella
Melbourne, but, personally, I keep my Sydney.
That summer, with these 35 degrees, and 'even more beautiful:)
in Melbourne are of European local and Sydney we are dreaming, I agree on that: we were in a pub from peanuts, but with music beautiful, high-quality drinks!
This thing, I must admit, a little 'I miss and Sydney' s a bit poor from this point of view.
If all goes well, in less than two months I'll be back. I doubt that everything is fine, 'cause the "papers" have always needed time to be finalized.
I really want to see my family, my friends, my lake, my Verona)
A hug, Albe

How To Remove Linoleum From Terrazzo

Lazise - VR

On this virtual tour and fragments of ' Italy more or less known and of 'Europe more or less distant, sometimes you just do not need a little road trip to discover beautiful landscapes and discover the beauty of our other areas.

On the way to Verona - Verona wonderful Romeo and Juliet - a few km further than Big Ben on the Venetian shore of Lake Garda, Lazise is : a village of about 6-7000 people, and with a distinctly tourist name from the alien flavor, a goal without being pretentious, but that is definitely worth the trouble and a visit.

An excellent choice for a weekend out of town, even out of season.

Cybex And No Weight On The Plates

BLUE MOUNTAINS (DAY 691)

weekend alone, the Blue Mountains, two hours by train from Sydney.
To clarify the mind, to get away from work, to escape the city to escape from the laptop / phone / contacts to escape from the "Alberto, I have a question ...", to free his mind from certain thoughts / pressures / responsibility. If
served really do not know. I doubt it.
I know that I read 600 pages of the book of Betancourt, I know that I am relaxed, I know I walked a lot, I know I saw a vast expanse of green, I know I thought that I launched myself to live among that green for a while, I know that I really miss home, I know that in 2 months back, I know that I love the rain, I know that I have not spoken to anyone, I know that there were too many tourists, I know I found my silence in the midst of them, I know I saw beautiful butterflies.
do not know why I kept watching the waterfall, still with the thoughts that roll in the head, with memories of childhood to dominate my clouds.

I admit it: last Tuesday I was on the verge of returning to Italy, for good. Then the thoughts, conversation on Skype with family and friends in Sydney, talks with the head of which are chatting with a friend, walks, what I did in the past two years, the good intentions, the desire to win My challenge here has changed a little the things. Not entirely.
missing 31. Thursday I get my 3months reviews, and I will understand some things from my side, on the side of the company.
I do not like the job to decide my future, but as an immigrant, this is the only solution.
If there are conditions to continue, I will remain in Australia, or, with some regret, but sure I fought to the end, I will return ... and then leave.

obstacle after obstacle, challenge after challenge, goal after goal, headache after headache, smile after smile.

hug you who reads me, Albe:)
