sleepless night and rainy sunday!
i struggle always with the jet lag! it’s not a big deal but after 9h sleep in only three nights and a 30h trip i’m crossing my limit! that means i’m sitting down and fall a sleep! not really fun when you would like to enjoy holidays! at 3am i got up and worked a bit on my pictures. after a while i went to bed….. close to 2pm is the next thing i know! not really the best thing i can do to adjust to melbourne time! but i felt good1 that’s also something and last night i slept good. some people can’t understand how difficult jet lag can be! going back will be much easier…
on sunday, by the way right now i enjoy a glas of the best selling white wine in oz - Oyster Bay Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc (it’s a detail that the wine is not from oz), we had the famous Kelletts Charcoal Chicken! i love that chicken! also the stuffing inside which is not normal in switzerland.
after that we went into the city to watch melbourne victory playing. it’s interesting to see how football, over here they say soccer, is in other country’s. how the fans are chanting, what else they do and how good the football game is. the level is good over here. as they play only the third professional season i was surprised. the first half it was a fast and interesting game against wellington fc. i also like the fact that a team of new Zealand is taking part in the aussie pro league. that’s how football will also be progressing in new Zealand. the fans were pretty loud! there were 16000 people in the stadium and only 500 were chanting but nearly trough the whole game. they were standing behind the goals. wellington had only 50 supporters.
on the way home we stopped for a beer at the esplanade hotel in st. kilda. short the espi. the espi has every night a live band and is an icon, especially for backpackers.
