On monday the sun was shining so much, that I decided to take a walk. I happened to find a whole new place along the river, in the wood, and then I saw new houses and places. At the end I ended up in the old town of Dachau. For 1,5 hours I enjoyed freedom, sun and my music! On the way I took some pictures, which I would like to present here.

     

Here are some pictures from the old town of Dachau:

          

The best ice-cream is sold here, EIS VENEZIA - anyone wants to join me?

     

I hope to take more of these nice walks in the near future... : )))

People are sometimes so funny... and sometimes even funnier! Or should I call it stupid? No... everyone can decide themselves what they think about this.

On the following list you can read about "20 ridiculous complaints made by holidaymakers". It´s sooo funny!

Here are the top 20. My favourites are 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 14 and 20! Which is yours?

1. A tourist at a top African game lodge overlooking a waterhole, who spotted a visibly aroused elephant, complained that the sight of this rampant beast ruined his honeymoon by making him feel "inadequate".

2. A woman threatened to call police after claiming that she'd been locked in by staff. When in fact, she had mistaken the "do not disturb" sign on the back of the door as a warning to remain in the room.

3. "The beach was too sandy."

4. A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was too thick and strong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time.

5. "Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women."

6. "We bought 'Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five euros (£3.50) from a street trader, only to find out they were fake."

7. "No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled."

8. "It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England it only took the Americans three hours to get home."

9. "My fiancé and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in a double-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact that I find myself pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in the room that we booked."

10. "I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends' three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller."

11. "The brochure stated: 'No hairdressers at the accommodation'. We're trainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying here?"

12. "There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners."

13. "We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white."

14. "We had to queue outside with no air conditioning."

15. "It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of noisy or unruly guests before we travel."

16. "I was bitten by a mosquito - no-one said they could bite."

17. "I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts."

18. "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be banned."

19. "On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food at all."

20. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels."

April has come, and I just got some really nice news. I am going to Örebro, Sweden for a month! I am going to work with my future dream job, and now I will practice it for a month! It´s just perfect, and I´m so glad! I get to meet all my friends, the city, the country... perfect!

Before that I will be at home for like 3 days, not for so long but after Sweden I will be at home for a longer period. It´s really going well for our team right now, and we have the chance to climb on the championship stage... it would be the perfect ending of this season!

Coffee time!

I have a new hobby: I love taking pictures, and now I started learning how to make them look nicer on the computer, and also how to make panorama pictures. This is the first time I tried it last Saturday when we stayed at the Allgäu Stern Hotel in Sonthofen before our home game. This is the result:



What do you think? Not too bad for a starter?! ; )

I´ll try to update more often now...

I had a short but nice trip to Budapest. I was there sunday evening til thursday morning. Wednesday was Christmas Eve; the most important day of the year for me. Here are some of the pictures made that day:

The whole family             The 4 brothers & sisters My sis and I
   

My brothers Csabi & David    Everyone                     A happy dad with his 2 daughters


                    

Our Christmas Tree with gifts & even more gifts! : )          My plate, mm yammie
                           

What did I get? Exactly what I wanted!



My mom, made by me. In her clothes she got from me, in pink and in brown. Good-looking!

   

The first greater experience in Dachau for us was the Volksfest, the "mini Octoberfest". On my 2nd day we went there after practice with the team, and here´s the prove for that:

Then we went there the same day we picked up Ju from the airport, and this is the result:










One day we went to Munich for sighseeing with Didi, our ass-coach and tourist guide. The picture was made up in the St. Peter´s tower (after having climbed 100 000 steps... on our free day!!!)



Since I now live close to München, the possibilities of spontanious visits from my aunt Emi are increasing. The first such visit occured my first sunday here, and I also had the luck to meet my two cousins as well. What did we do? What else than went to Volksfest! ; ) Spontanious visits mean that you don´t have a clue that the person in question is gonna visit you, and in this case my friend Martina already visited me (in a more planned way). So we had a great time together!



Last week we hade our first training camp in Sonthofen and one of the days we went up the mountain to a "hütte" (family´s house which also is a restaurant) and had some special Bavarian food (kind of like Hungarian so it was not very special to me). I sat next to Oksis child Kristina and we had a great time! On the other pic you can see Ju, KK & Li



Tomorrow we´re leaving for another training camp for two weeks and after having one day free (with maybe one practice) we will leave to our first tournament in Austria!

Peace! (of sh**)

Well, when we booked our flight to Thailand we didn´t realize that there´s a reason why it´s not tourist season in July; because the monsoon is visiting the country almost every day! And when it comes, you don´t have any chance to survive it without being wet everywhere... not even umbrellas or rain clothes help!

Despite of that we took our umbrellas and rain jackets with us everywhere, just in case...

Here are some photos from Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Krabi - everywhere where the monsoon reached us... : )

1. Monsoon in Siam, Bangkok (left) and Chiang Mai (right)

2. Thai people are prepared for the arrival of the monsoon; they even use the water for nurturing the flowers!


3. Here are two of our desperate tries to defend us from the power of the monsoon; that´s something that you would only do while on vacation (I mean, looking like that... ; )


Running through the monsoon,
Beyond the world,
To the end of time,
Where the rain won´t hurt...
