I guess I can say that i was back in Australia yesterday, not physically but mentally. One of the Steiner schools in Freiburg had a circus show and I went with some family and friends. The sense of community all came back to me, the friendly people who are all individual, the ones who wear no shoes because they are a waste of money or the ones with dreadlocks down their backs.  The buildings surrounding me had no straight lines and were filled with colour and happiness,it was a good feeling. The circus show which i watched was amazing, all the kids showing the community their creativeness and skills and they were all so supportive of each other.
It seems to be a problem that the most used word in my vocabulary is 'ja' (meaning yes). Don't really know what i got myself into but tomorrow I am running in a marathon..I am not at my fittest state considering the amount of junk I have been eating while i have been here but i thought 'why not?'. No backing out now, I've got the school t-shirt and I am all set to represent the school. I am also filled with bruises because of my soccer game today. We lost 4-2 thanks to a black horse..or bus or bulldozer (whatever you want to call her, she fits every description) on the other team. You could hear her coming from a mile off and also smell her. I was the lucky one who had her marking me. When i got the ball i went around her but she tripped me over EVERYTIME from behind. Oh well..thats all involved with soccer.

Thought I should add some photos of the things I have been doing because I'm not going to write about everything i have already done. These are just the highlights from the trip (I'm making a powerpoint of  all the photos. I will post it when I get back to Australia)

This guy thought he was the coolest. Going skiing in lederhosen..

I'm still looking at this photo and thinking 'Did I really take that?' 

A visit to an art museum in Basel.. very inspiring and interesting
