Melbourne

Hey there,

We also had one short day in Melbourne yesterday. That's rally a big town (3.4 million people). Even though it was short, we had a nice impression of all the important parts ... Flinders Street Station, Botanic Gardens, Rialto Tower, ...

We can't upload any pictures from here, so you'll have to wait for those pictures as well. Sorry about that 🙁 (We're lucky to have some internet at all).

Great Ocean Road

Hello everyone,

we've been heading to Melbourne on wheels (5/12 to 7/12). After a bad start (car had a filter failure) we headed off from Adelaide around 2 pm instead of 10 am.

But the tour itself was simply great! Nice cliffs, cool beaches and good weather. We really enjoyed it. We'll tell you more about when we're back home ...

Cheers ya'll ...

Second Sunday of Advent

The time is running by and today already is the second Sunday of advent. We wish everybody a nice pre-christmas period!

Light the Advent candle two                      Wir sagen euch an den lieben Advent.
Think of humble shepherds who               ehet die zweite Kerze brennt!
Filled with wonder at the sight                  So nehmet euch eins um das andere an,
Of the child on Christmas night.                Wie euch der Herr an uns getan.

Candle, candle burning bright,                  Freut euch ihr Christen,
shining in the cold winter night                 Freuet euch sehr!
Candle, candle burning bright                    Schon ist nahe der Herr.
Fill our hearts with Christmas light.

(For those who havent thought about presents: it's time now!)

Leaving Adelaide

As we are leaving Adelaide tomorrow morning to drive to Melbourne, we got rid of our bikes and most of the keys we had today. Furthermore, we tidied up our desk at the Uni and the organisation we worked in and said godbye to everybody.
We now have to pack our bags again, after 3 months in Adelaide. But we are looking forward to our holiday so that's not too bad!
Cheers,
Verena and Johannes
