Mountain bike training at the national park of Harz
















National Park Harz and TRAILTECH mountain biking 
own the copyrights of the pictures.

















What is mountainbiking about?
 
Team B is composed of 
J for Joshi
A for Adrian
A for Albert
K for Kann
S for Stefan
A for Angie 
A for Anton
C for Claus

I fell, stood up and moved on 
However, safety first
I will give it a try 
but not push myself to do something that 
I think will put me in danger 
or is beyond my capacity.

We had lunch break at Molkenhaus.

My trophies in this adventure include
1. a swollen and wounded knee
2. bruises all over
3. an unforgetable stunt due to false use of forward break
4. amazing picture perfect view of autumnn in forest mountain
5. a whole new concept of how to ride a bike

A friendly visit to Aas and Oslo of Norway

In this journey,
I met interesting friends who are now my Facebook friends.
In general
I like the beautiful landscape,
specially the transitions of colors in the sky.
Maybe,
I will go back to Norway 
to explore the adventure I missed last year (Tromsa).

For someone staying in Germany,
it amazes me to hear everybody speaking descent English (with British accent); not to mention, people in the University.
People are also, generally speaking, very friendly.
However, given the choice, I do not think I would like to LIVE there.

Scuba -do-be-do


The first challenge is to get on the suit with the complete set of gadgets.

First impression: gosh, its so heavy.
Secong thought: how far am I carrying it (to reach the beach)?
Third reaction: CooooooLD!!!
Fourth sway: it's so difficult to STABILIZE myself and establish BALANCE.
Fifth result: I finally manage to perform beginner's SCUBA.
Sixth problem: my ascend create unpleasant air pressure in my ears.
Seventh response: I feel more comfortable in controlling the buoyance and staying STABLE.
Last dilemma: XXXX, I felt like carrying an elephant back to the surface.

It was an expereince very different from my other adventures.
Leaving out the carrying part of the tank and etc., it is actually FUN!
