Congratulations To Paul and Jeanette.

Congratulations to Paul and Jeanette for the arrival of their new daughter Jade!

maybe I should update this thing.....

Sorry to all that my update of this blog has been stuttered and you have not had regular informs to read, i will explain this:

I was in Paris from the 6th-8th of january, as you can see from the photo, during which time i became quite ill and i returned home sick, only wanted to sleep and watch movies, so thats what i did, now this week i have had school again, but i have also been at home with Daniel because he is sick so its a been a recovery week.

Paris was amazing, well what i saw of it anyway, i was in bed for 2 of the 3 days we were there. The eiffel is huge, the louvre is beautiful and Paris was overall a fantastic city. I seem to have started counting down the days that i have until i leave for home, at the moment it is 11, this exchange has gone so fast and i cant believe it is almost over, it has been a fantastic experience and i couldnt have asked for better with my Host family and Daniels group of friends. I know ive said it before, but thank you to all those who helped me get here or gave me some money for spending while over here, it has been fully appreciated and i just want to thank you, and a special thank you to my mum, dad and nana who all helped me significantly in the means of getting here.

Im sure we will meet up in 2 weeks or so and i can tell you more about how fantastiy Europe has been for me and swap stories about our summer/winter times. But for now im getting ready to go clubbing, god bless german drinking ages haha.

Love you all a lot seeya soon

Love Hamish

Paris

This sums Paris up right?

To fit the special needs of Parents.

Here you go, The one of Daniel and I is in Freiburg with A catherdral in the background and the other is of me at the top of the TV tower in Stuttgart and the last is of Daniel and Alistair in Freiburg before we left to come home.

New Years!!

Happy New Years, Gutes Neues Jahr and Multiple expressions used in other languages, i wish you all a fantastic 2009 and that you enjoy more good moments than bad haha, we all know bad moments happen.

My New Years celebration was very fun and very funny. It started at 8pm and the 8 of us at daniels party, Me, Daniel, Sina, Vicky, Uli, Jo-Jo, Patrick and Sophia all had Raclette for dinner, which is like a mini oven where everyone gets a tray each and can cook their own food so noone doesnt eat what that dont like.

After that we had Sekt, which is like Champagne, to celebrate the good times we have had over the Year.

And then......the fun started, we played Ligretto while slightly tipsy which was funny, then we played a drinking game which made everyone happy, and then we went out into the fields behind daniels house to watch the Fireworks go off around Pflugfelden. Sky Rockets should be re-allowed in NZ because they are awesome!!

It was a awesome evening and im sure i havent done it much justice by trying to describe it over blog, but my new years evening was fantastic, not as great as it was for others haha (inside joke) but it was alot of German fun.

Love Hamish

sorry for lateness

Merry Xmas to everyone, hope you had a great day and much love from me
