Last week (the beginning of the report is a bit older, so this thing now already 2 weeks ago) we had Wednesday and Thursday free and as always we were on our way to a new part of our environment . explore On Wednesday morning we left and drove to Monterey to capture the largest salt water aquarium in the world. After almost 2 hours later we arrived and dived into the incredibly diverse world of the ocean. It was really fascinating once again, how many different kinds of living things there are under water. This of course is still the appropriate presentation, was certainly not in the saving of financial resources. We could really see all sorts of creatures, ray to squid, sharks and seahorses, otters, jellyfish and sea snakes. The attraction was a touch pool, where we had the opportunity starfish, sea cucumbers and small animals (sorry, no longer knows what else ...) to touch. It was really great to handle such animals times, however, is of course questionable whether the animals were so exciting, as we do, because I do not know if I would be just so excited when I would touch 1,000 people a day ... but well, I am not the beast, and I found so than the super man! After several hours in the aquarium and touch pool experience, we ran a little rum in Monterey to the famous to find sardines road from Steinbeck, unfortunately it is us not met, but we are now the proud owner of a photograph of Malte from a Harley;)
After we were now two hours went there, we had obviously also return again 2 hours. Malte used the time for one of his famous "Powernaps" in good German: Kurznickerchen or 20-minute sleep. On the way home we stopped briefly at the video store to stock up for us the evening with films because so nearly 100 TV stations are not enough ...
On Thursday, the so-called lost day because we have not done anything for us or for us already, but unfortunately not for our pleasure, for the day began with a enjoyable trip to the Oakland ghetto, known as "the hood", because Malta was still waiting for his Socail Security Number. After we got there, but we had to find that the snake was more than long. So we decided spontaneously, because Uli again had problems with the car, nearby in the drive to "repair shop" to check the car to leave. The nice gentlemen there we have stated, however, that only a "Body Shop" were (and I always thought that would be what to do with personal hygiene) and to worry about car repairs, but only Autoverschoenerungen would. However, they were then so kind and have passed on a nice repair shop, so that we found ourselves in a few branches and some rummage then also in the right place. The mechanic, or what he has always told us then after we have described him rumzickt how the car that he would have to unfortunately kept her over night because he would take up longer. So we agreed that we would drop off the car in the following week, as Uli needs the car so, because it allows them to work to drive.
Well, since we were already in Oakland, we drove past the Ice Center also still the same to us to inquire about the opening hours, but had to find that one person can not not vereinsangehoerige skating to "normal" times and so much of this plan then quickly back into the water.
Since it was already early afternoon, we decided to do at least something for our apartment, although there is habitable now with no problems, but still lags a bit behind decorative. So we passed our favorite store IKEA to us to see some pictures and plants and beautify the home to so purely optical. After we had to realize, however, the IKEA is now no longer as cheap as it once was and we have the pictures, even if we would buy them again anyway could not take with Germany, we decided against this type of decoration. A little depressed we had then first something for our physical Well done and so we went with "pizza-my-heart" which way the only shop where you get a surprisingly acceptable pizzas. (Actually, that's quite fascinating, you always think that the Americans can make good pizza, after all they are the land of fast food, but we had until now always find that neither the TC nor the pizzas tasted delivered pizzas .) After we had strengthened us, we were on our way in just a few meters from AT & T store, the local ansa vinegars telephone company, in the hope that finally something for our Internet to be able to tuen, because by this time we used always or the Internet of our neighbors, who are too stupid, their Internet protect (typical amino-containing ...)
Once in the store, we were then also expertly a DSL router turned on for 88 dollars and given the statement to take home, we would receive in the next few days a call from AT & T, when our internet is available.
was now late for it then definitely later and to once again go out and explore the area.
This was our mood, of course not on the high point, because it really was a lost day, we had achieved nothing and that we naturally depressed.
So we decided, after some Internet research to push us a little physically and drove to the nearby island of El Cerrito, a bit of bowling to play. The mood was suddenly better Surprisingly, Malte won every game and after a few games we were also tired and went home.
do not be surprised that I did not use any special characters, I'm (psst, do not tell) is currently at work and since the season is over and not much going on, I took advantage of the situation to write a little, but unfortunately, the U.S. keyboard, these keys do not just ...
