Gold Coast October 2009

After seeing and being it looks to me that Gold Coast is the most developed resort area in Australia. Surfers Paradise is the jewel of Queensland's Gold Coast and one of the most popular holiday destinations in Australia. Surfers Paradise is where you'll find the perfect fusion of city and beach lifestyles set amidst a spectacular skyline and brilliant stretch of coast. Once you arrive, you'll soon feel that you've literally arrived in paradise.

This is the car I got for a day ... not bad at all....little new Kia

At the beach... just wonderful nice sunny day ....well have say tat Gold Coast has excellent sandy beaches.. Surfers Paradise ....Vibrant and eclectic, Surfers Paradise provides non-stop action. With an abundance of theme parks and family attractions all in easy access, ( I did not have time for that ) but seriously you're never short of finding things to do. The trouble instead may be finding enough time to do everything........

Stefan & me !!!!! The Best Moments .......

big big big hugssssss....

.....Stefan and I & Soccer Time .....

Many different cultures have played a sport similar to the modern game of soccer but no one can really say with any certainty when or where soccer began but it is known that the earlier variations of what later became soccer were played almost 3000 years ago.

Who invented the new type of soccer shoes? Somebody but NOT ME ...ADIDAS?????

...............GO LIVERPOOL..................

Great Picture ... Stef !!!!!
Nike, Inc. has a rich history dating back to at least 1957 when Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight met. It wasn't until the early 60s that Phil started Blue Ribbon Sports which later became Nike.

I heard somewhere but I'm not sure that ...The SWOOSH logo is a graphic design created by Carolyn Davidson in 1971. It represents the wing of the Greek Goddess NIKE." VICTORY

After stumbling badly against archrival Reebok in the 1980s,
Nike rose about as high and fast in the ‘90s as any company
can. It took on a new religion of brand consciousness and
broke advertising sound barriers with its indelible Swoosh,
“Just Do It” slogan and deified sports figures.

hmmmm going back to Melbourne !!!! checking the flights schedule .... Day is short ............

You do not want to know ...what has happened here...shhhshsh

Arriving to Melbourne .............grrr!!!!!!!

Love you Stefan !!!!!

Golf Day April 2009

The origin of golf is unclear and open to debate ...

Not Sure but A golf-like game is recorded as taking place on 26 February 1297, in the Netherlands, in a city called Loenen aan de Vecht, where the Dutch played a game with a stick and leather ball. The winner was whoever hit the ball the most number of times into a target several hundreds of meters away. Some scholars argue that this game of putting a small ball in a hole in the ground using golf clubs was also played in 17th-century Netherlands and that this predates the game in Scotland. There are also other reports of earlier accounts of a golf-like game from Continental Europe!!!

If you've been a golfer for quite some time now,like Stefan has ... now he is looking back and remembering just how frustrating it was working on that swing and simply playing good, but it's worth it ....as you can see he is enjoying the game as much as possible!
He said to me once .... Don't think of golf as an obstacle, but a challenge. Stefan loves golf mainly because it is challenging. ...... it looks like he has done a Perfict Swing !!!

All it takes is some practice, and more practice! Hear that Jasna .... Keep going !!!!If you get frustrated and discouraged easily, you may easily quit the sport that many others are truly enjoying.

Golf to many is a great way to relax, spend the weekend and enjoy nature. Golf can be good for your health and your heart. Walking an average course for a round of golf can be as much as four kilometres. If you walk 18 holes three to five times a week, you’ll get an optimal amount of endurance exercise for your heart. If you pull your clubs or carry them, you’ll burn even more calories each round and benefit even more. Playing golf regularly can help you:
Stay fit -Improve muscle tone and endurance -Lose weight and body fat.

Some equipment you'll need for gold include golf clubs, a bag designed to carry golf clubs, a set of golf balls, and a proper attire for golf. You may ask for some assistance at the shop when it comes to choosing the types of golf clubs and golf balls you might need. A good golf attire would be something light and comfortable, like a shirt or blouse that allows more movement for you to swing comfortably. Shoes should have soft spikes underneath and comfortable.

And of course, sunscreen and a cap or hat are advisable, as you will be out under the sun probably the whole day!!!!!!
