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
