it's me all over again :D
It is weekend and we are in Chile now for almost 2 weeks. I am still working on my finance case studies...just takes up too much time.
First of all I want to add something to my last post, I actually found the best beach spot now and therefore also the best idea about jobs on the beach :D At the one place they put up those high tables, really nice and clean and they are offering massages and just a few meters away from there are those nice relaxing things up on the beach, which kind of look like beds, just to be there and enjoy the day... The best day to go to this part of the beach is saturday afternoon, then all the companies which bring out new products are giving out samples ;)
Last night then we did something for our education and went to a classical concert we got invited to. It was actually pretty good. I loved the arena where it was located at and it was really impressive with all those instruments playing together, muy lindo.
Today then in the morning or lets say more around noon after we had breakfast around 10.30, Claudia came and asked if we want to join going to the Derby ( the day before, at the beach, we already got tickets for free entrance ;) ) so we thought why not, finance can wait lets go. I needed some distraction anyways after I couldn't await the big game ( SUPER BOWL ) to start.
Then like so often already Yolanda, Claudia, Isi, Stefan and me climbed all in the car and drove to another part of the City. The ride is always already pretty exciting, one little girl in a car seat and 4 people in a little car going up and down the hills of Vina, but actually yesterday on the way home from the concert we had a car next to us with 4 or 5 kids on the backseat, that was already almost scary, don't even want to think about what could happen, if they need to go a bit harder on the break once... Back to the story so, we went to the Derby, a bit annoying was, we were supposed to pay for parking also we just parked along the street... a bit wierd. Anyways we were there and first of all Claudia went to buy some tickets or she set money on one or two horses, then we went over to the place where you can see the horses race. Isi just loved watching all the caballos and Stefan had a good time playing something like catch with her :) Then the race started and it was really interesting and the people all got up from there seats and it was big excitement in the air and a minute later it was all like before, just a few more happy faces and some sad people. All in all it was really great being there and see something live you usually only know from TV.
When we were back home we had lunch, today Salad, like always, then Steak with Rice and French Fries and afterwards fruits --> really healthy and so good tasting, we always have a ton of fruits and veggies in the house.
Later on the big game finally started and I have to say it was really really really a big game, I literally almost died a couple of times of excitement. I have to say since my time in the US I became a fan of American Football and through Larry I got to know the Steelers, since then I try to at least follow some of the games, which is difficult with the time difference, but the Super Bowl is still a big event and especially this year with the Steelers being in it again, like in my first Super Bowl ever in 2006 where they won against Seattle, just that it was a lot more exciting this year, especially towards the end where it looked like the Cardinals would win and I wanted to throw something at the TV, but I knew the Steelers would try something in the last 3 or so minutes and then in the last minute got a Touch Down -- YEAH -- 27:23, what a game... Thanks Maren and Stefan and also Anni to share this event with me.
That was all about my great weekend, hope you all had as great of a time as me
Lots of love from here :)
