Around the world in..

what is it? 38 days or so?

In any way.. couple of days in LA with the Hawaiian team, couple of days at home, couple of days in New Zealand for the Southern Cross tournament and then onto World Championships in Melbourne!! it seems so unreal right now!
So instead of updating my blog I should go and get my act together.. right now!
I'll write a decent update on the plain tomorrow or in the hotle when I actually have time.
See you all soon!
Love

Pennies in a Pot

First of all I need to apologise for abandoning all my faithfull readers. Not that there were that many, I think, but I've been out of the loop for a while since my computer decided to crash on me and since life decided to take it's course into it's own hands once again.
I'm back on the comnputer, semi online (if I can steal the neigbours bandwidth) and still not in controll of life!

My holiday was great with the highlight being going to the Big Island (where I had no responsibility for anything anymore and where we went swimming.. with dolphins. Once by accident because we were snorkeling and we saw them so swam out to meet them! It was pretty darn amazing! Once on a boat called mellow yellow, with a bunch of hippies in the open sea, so incredible! I might get some picures at some point, but it was so wonderfull. You could dive down and sometmes they would swim along with you and when I tunred along my axis one of them turned with me. I didn't know I could hold my breath so long nor that I could go that deep under water. There were at least 20 at a time and they were everywhere.. NEway.. if you ever get the chance, GO, you'll never regret it!

The penny thing? right, we just came back form our road trip and we had the day offf to catch on school.. so we have this pot of pennies and as we all needed to procrastinate we ended up counting them, and then.. well, aiming them back into the pot! It was so fun and so addicting! and I made a waterpolo ball from newclean pennies and old dirty ones. well.. you know, you are obsessed or you aren't. we are.
