The vampires are coming...

As it gets warmer here in Sydney - and boy has it been great the last couple of days - its getting colder in London. Last night it was about 5 degrees celcius in chilly London town while it was a sweet 27 here in Sydney.

Now before I bore you with the weather...well what the hell its so warm here and Im not looking forward to the freezing cold vampire lifestle of London :) Appartently in the London winter the sun comes up at 10am and sets a 4pm. That means we get to work when its dark and leave when its dark - its the life of a vampire - only coming out at night! It will be a new experience for sure. And so will the visits to the solarium to get a hit of vitamin D to replace what we naturally get from the sunshine.

And becuase its cold and dark outside we'll end up inside...proabably in a bar drinking. So we will be tanned, in a bar drinking and outside during the night - hell thats just like summer in Sydney anyways!! Bring it on London!

The Med Interview Wrap-Up

Its over!!! at 6.12pm I left the final of 8 interviews.... yes 8 interviews. It wasnt that bad though. Each station (there were 8 of them in total) consisted of a small room, a senario, question on the senario and 7 mintues to answer. There were also follow up questions to make sure we covered everthing needed.

I think it went well. I could answer all the questions thanks to the help of Mare, and my mum and dad. We went through a whole bunch of senarios in practice for this.

It was damn tense before hand with all 8 interviewees sitting in the same waiting room making small talk. The tension in that room was thinker than my big toe-nail (charming, I know). But everyone was friendly, even the interviewers who made an effort to put us at ease.

I would give you some of the senarios but we signed a confidentiality agreement to not reveal any of them while the interview process is still going - which it is. We get the results in about two weeks.

But for now its time to relax and enjoy the sun (as long as it stays out)

Brouge







Tomasz with Michaelangelo's Maddona and Child in the background. The only piece of Michaelangelo's work to leave Italy during his lifetime.









The view of Brouge from the Bell tower. We walked 266 stairs to get this view...apparently in the middle ages they hadn't heard of elevators.











One of the beautiful canals in Brouge





















One more from Brussels before I sign off









Enjoy the photos!

Sending all my love back home and to all my friends around the world,
