Hitchhiking experiences
the 4 days since the last entry are simply passed rapidly. I never really felt that the last entries had a longer time period than 2 days. But appearances nunmal clouds.
After my visit to the museum on Thursday to end the opening times failed, I decided to just make up for this Friday. This time I decided however to tackle the 6km by bus, because at 11:30 clock just too late to work was. Finally, I wanted to not resist in front of closed doors.
In principle, the museum is quite nice, there are four different departments, which must be mentioned that the department is the "first nations" simply overloaded incredible. But in this department we would have provided one really reads all about it through eight hours to stay loose. To some I like better, the animal world, which divided into different geographic zones such as the prairies, mountains or the northern coniferous forests was. Quite nice to look at was then the "bug room" with a variety of insects from around the world. The interactive children's area, and artistic photographs I have finally given little attention. First, because it was already 16:45 clock and also because it did not really interest me. Route from the Museum to Dave's apartment I ran back but stayed with sunshine - Again, a nice 2 hour trip.
evening we both were then invited to a party, hosted by another couch surfer. The house in which he lives was just super crazy - they divide to 2 somehow a fairly old house with 6 rooms and a large basement, which was set up super chaotic. Most lewd was that he in his bedroom has a button with which it can operate outside of the house a school bell. Why this is there but he knows himself and has not ensured in any case for a lot of laughs. In itself, the party was once again super cool and gave you the opportunity to meet different people from different countries. What is not so "sutje" was that at night I run at 0 ° C for about 50 minutes after the house had, but hey, it was still funny.
Saturday I again slept really well and had no plans in principle. A few days earlier But Dave had told me that he is quite often play golf and we are in the afternoon then to a "driving range" driven by a few neat balls to hurl through the air. Would say the first 30% of the balls I have botched quite nice, as in golf simply very much technology is needed. Then we went to old-style but neat Zirkelbach uphill and I have the following balls almost beaten up almost all of the 200 meter mark. It does make a lot of fun and I can tell you it's definitely something I would later repeat in Germany again - of course not only on the driving range ...
evening we were from another couch surfer in a penthouse in the middle of downtown to the NHL Derby vs Edmonton. Calgary "invited. Already breathtaking, the town in the 14th Stock to watch at night. In addition, there was a huge TV, I guess the 52 ". Unfortunately, Edmonton was ultimately lost to a 3-2 lead still 3:5 and then the evening ended pretty soon after the game was 23 against clock to an end. Oh, and Leon and his "host brother" came from Calgary on Saturday to pay a visit to the water park in the Mall Westedmonton a visit. During the game they came over and still in the apartment and said hello briefly. Was quite nice the kid again vollzuquatschen in German.
Since the two have spent the night in a hotel, we had an appointment for Sunday morning for a walk downtown, because they had no time to stop by there. Well, we think only about 30 minutes in the area ran around before we went down again for an hour in the mall, because they still have not been there really. After a snack and dozens of German talks, which saw Leon's friend, of course not a word, they are against 14 clock then again set out for Calgary.
have at home Dave, a friend of his and I still need the board game "Ticket to Ride: Europe "played. A fabulous board game that I can lay recommend highly to anyone. The game ended relatively quickly, as was scheduled for 19 clock a couch surfing community dinner in Chinatown. It was really cool, ultimately we were 9 Couch Surfer (hosts and surfers), who gathered in a truly delicious Chinese restaurant. There's nothing like "sweet & sour chicken with rice".
Today was my week in Edmonton and then again around and I decided a few days to Saskatoon in Saskatchewan to hitchhike. (Hitchhiking) I've made it a lot in advance and considerable thought - after all, is about 530 km east of Saskatoon Edmonton removed and thus corresponds to almost half of the north-south route in Germany. As you can read my entry, you know by now that nothing happened to me and it was a very good decision herzureisen in this way. First, because it was a really interesting experience and also because I saved $ 50 and sometimes loose about 3 hours otherwise additional bus ride.
Dave has me in the morning to 8, about 15km east clock let out of town on a highway, and thus began the wait. I had tinkered me in advance but a sign that says "Saskatoon", in the end you could see this poor, however, and it has brought me nothing really. I was about 40 minutes with my clothes on the roadside before a young family stopped and asked me did I want to go out. (I finally had the sign in his hand, haha) As I said Saskatoon, I got a wonderful response, "Good, that's where we're heading to." The next 5 ½ hours did I then sat next to very nice people from Saskatoon, which ultimately brought me directly to the front door of my couchsurfing hosts. Simply brilliant. I also got along very well with the family - they live only about 6-7 blocks from here and have invited me but just to stay with you if I do not even know where I'm coming. Also, I must borrow the next few days her mountain bike and can again explore a few trails. My room at my new couchsurfing hosts is again very horny and I'm right next door or a 2nd large room with couch and TV for me where I am currently staying.
As you can see my winning streak was only interrupted so entertaining: the farm experience. I will stay probably until Friday in Saskatoon and will then probably go to Regina, which is the capital of Saskatchewan.
I would be the way of ideas, suggestions or praise is not averse to ...
Greetings home
