October 29, 2007 - Vienna, Austria
I went into uni today and Dyl stayed at home doing some work and also playing happy housewife (doing the grocery shopping, washing clothes, getting dinner sorted out) - Christa, you've taught him well
The weather today was 'warm' at 13 degrees celcius. I didn't need to smoother myself with my jacket and kept it unbuttoned for the majority of my travels. Dyl was stoked that he got to go for a run in shorts and a tee. Daylight saving changes were made last night so waking up to a dark outside will be a little better. Mum, I missed your call because I left for uni earlier today. Wish Kik all the best for me xxTomorrow Dyl's planning to come in to uni with me for the afternoon and then we will go to have some massive schnitzel at a place called Centimeter near our train station, Alser Strasse. Yes, Maree the day has come for Dyl to try some of Wein's deep-fryed delectables!The photos were taken by Dyl on his jog up the mountains. Apparently many people walk their dogs, go hiking or just walk around. Many people walk with these stick like ski poles but without the little cirle on the end. They are called Nordic Walking Poles and are meant to give you a better workout and you use your upperbody too. (I was told that many people don't use them properly though - you have to get into a certain rhythm for them to work)Kenny, as I walked over to the kitchen people in our dorm were watching Scrubs...(with German voice overs). Classic. Couldn't see which episode/season they were up to though. Maree, tell Dan that I am loving the Scubs (S5) we took over, we've been getting our daily fix just before we go to bed.Aunty Birg and Uncle Ross your photos of Paris look fantastic! La Boheme sounded very special. That's all from me. Katie xoNath - I'm yet to weigh-in but I'm following Homer Simpson's complete guide to weight gain: super-sizing beer, eating sausages with extras (wrapped in bacon, injected with cheese) and tomorrow I'm finally going to eat schnitzel the size of a family pizza. However walking and jogging are impeding the weight gain process. After following your lead and growing the beard for a week it is now gone, and I'm convinced I can't really grow a nice thick one. Did end up with a good moustache though.





Yes, si si! I had a look at the Nordic walking online! Looks pretty cool, but the technique looks tricky.

How about advanced technique- skiing with nordic poles! Yeah 4 poles!
Dyl, you have to join my Movember team called MOve Over. Check email fro details. If you know anyone else that wants to raise money for Movember email me! Have to raise money!
Yay daylight saving.
Love,
