°It's Time To Say Goodbye°

Soo eusi Liebe, das eschs Ändi vonere lange lange Reis as andere Ändi vode Wält, womer en Ibleck i drüü wonderschöni Länder becho hend. I dene 8.5 Mönet hemmer ned nome euses Änglisch verbesseret, sondern mer nämid ganz vel Läbeserfahrig met ufe Wäg. Mer händ veli onglaublechi Lüüt kenneglehrt ond wärded jede einzelni vermesse ond nie vergässe. Velech chrüützed sech eusi Wäge jo eines Tages weder... Mer hend eus au no be allne wele ganz härzlech bedanke, well jede vo euch hed üsi Reis noeinisch meh zomene einmalige Erläbnis gmacht.

Hey dear friends, this is the end of an incredible  and long journey to the other end of the world, where we were able to explore three beautiful countries. During this 8.5 months we did not only improve our english, but also do we take a lot of life experience with us. We got to know a lot of amazing and lovely people. We will miss each of you and we will never forget you. Maybe our ways will cross again in the future. 
We wanted to say thank you, because each of you made our trip more to a once in a lifetime experience.

 Bondi Beach, es absoluts Sufer-Mekka. För eus esches nomol schön gse, de Strand in Australie es letzts mol z gniesse. Es guets alts Sprechwort vo do seit: "Life is a beach", för eus esch s Läbe definitiv en Strand gse, amel för die letzte 8.5 Mönet.../ Bondi Beach, a surfer hotspot. For us it was nice to see the Australian beaches once again. A good old saying is: "Life is a beach" and for us, it totally was, at least for the last 8.5 months...

Am 2. Obig hemmer teil ame "Crab-Race" gnoh. Dodezue hemmer mösse en Chrabbe esteigere, dos en schwiizer Chrabbe (Federer) gha hed hemmer notürlech die gnoh. D'Chrabe send den id Metti vome Chreis gsetzt worde ond send los krabbled..was mer ned dänkt hätted..mer send 3. worde ond hend ganzi $79 gwonne:)


On the 2nd evening we took part in a "Crab-Race". It started with an auction for the crabs. Of course we took the swiss one (Federer). They then were placed in the middle of a circle and started crabbing around. What wi didn't expected was that we won 3rd place with the price money of $79.




Was mech seehr seehr vell Närve kostet hed esch s'Chorb flächte gseh. Mer hend dodezue es "Palmeblatt" gnoh ond gflächtet. Was am Afang zemlech eifach gseh esch, esch gäge Schloss emmer komplizierter worde.


What definately cost a lot of nervs was the "basket-waving". For that we waved a "palmleave". What started quite easily got very complicated in the end.












Am Ändi hed dä Chorb den so usgseh.


That's how the basket looked at the end.
De Leandro hed den bem "Löffel-Tauche" met gmacht ond met ganze 22 ond eme Schlössel vome andere Gast gwonne/  Leandro took part in the "spoon-diving" and won with 22 spoons and a key from an other guest.


Castaway Island
Die meischte kenned de Felm "Castaway" metem Tom Hanks ond em "Wilson". Do Castaway Island nor 30 Minute vo Matamanoa empfärnt esch semmer det au no go verbii luege./ The most of you know the movie "Castaway" starring Tom Hanks and "Wilson". Castaway Island is only 30 minutes away from Matamanoa, so we hopped over and had a look at it.
