Finally the blog is up to date (and school starts)

Monday morning, early birds are rising and getting off to school. Julie is looking nice in her new shoes (spotted black/white ballerinas) and we're starting the journey (twenty minute walk to bus stop, 20 minutes by bus if we catch the express, 35 minutes if we don't). Now, what happens?

BLISTERS.

Julie is starting to ache. Julie has a blister, then two. Both heels are running sore. 25 minutes of pain and agony later we are at the bus stop, I run over to a pharmacy to get band aids, bus is coming, I'm still at the store, lady's taking her time, I am paying, running, we catch the bus, Julie get her band aids. Everything is fine. We even got to see a little tiger.

Then, 35 minutes later (we didn't catch the express), we're walking off the bus. Everything is fine, cause Julie has plastered her heels. Then, when Julies heels are not aching anymore (everything is relative), she notices more blisters one her toes.. And they're getting worse by the minute. The pictures would be unbelievable.. (Thus, I was not allowed to take them). I took pictures of other things instead :) Like the bird that fascinates me and scares Julie :P

And I had to post this picture from a beautiful and secret little place here in Brisbane :) Julie was out buying new shoes at this time.
Our first day at school at school was nice, we both think this will work out fine. We ended early :P, and we got invited to a BBQ at one of the places where some of our group are staying. Ended up walking around half the city looking for a groceries store, which we found. Saw some weird things along the way as well.

For BBQ-ing we bought chicken skewers, satay and honey-marinated ones :) We made our way (somehow) to the place and grilled with most of our class. I am really anxious to get this post out while it's still the 15th, to not get behind again, so I'm not really writing that much more about grilling. I just had to add a picture of this pool. You see, according to Urban Legend (the people of our class who live there), it can only be bathed in at night, because then it is clean! When it's light (and you see what you're bathing in), swimming in the pool would be impossible. ..
