I got an email a few years ago with funny responses people had made on exams. I felt like posting it because its funny...... watch out for the elephant
Turkey Day 6: Ephesus/Kusadasi This was our last full day in Turkey. We had an early start to get to Ephesus, which is one of Turkey's most important archeological sights....it was definitely the most impressive we saw. A good portion of the city is still in tack, including the theatre, the library, a number of streets and bath houses. I think the most interesting for me was the public bathroom which was still standing. The oldschool toilets were beside one another along a bench. The whole thing was fairly well designed as the room included an open water pipe (in front of the bench toilets) which was used for cleaning ones bum off. Apparently the latrines were social places; even if you had a toilet at home, you might have a membership to the public toilets as well....I guess so that you could 'shoot the shit' with your friends....literally. After Ephesus we did a stop at a leather factory and store. Once again I was not enthused, but I ended up buying a fairly
Hi All, One last post from Africa. I’m really not that keen to go back to Australia and to work on Tuesday. I could easily just take a few more weeks off and go up to Namibia. I’ve met a few people who are doing two week trips from here in Cape Town up the coast of Namibia. I think that will be my next trip to Africa. Anyway, I’ve spent the last 4 days in Cape Town and it’s a great city. Unfortunately I didn’t get the best weather while here, as it is winter. All things considered, it could have been worse if it poured the whole time, but I had a lot of grey skies and clouds. So I didn’t quite get to do everything I wanted, but it was still good. Just means I’ll have to come back. On Wednesday when I arrived the weather was wonderful. Sunny and warm. Unfortunately I didn’t arrive until 2:45pm, so by the time I was checked into my hotel it was already 3:30-4. Not wanting to waste the afternoon though, I booked it down to the V&A waterfront, which is a tourist area w
Hello friends Thought I would write a short blog post since I'm a) overseas and b) sitting alone at a restaurant with nothing better to do. I'm in the south/central US for work on a client here. I spent the weekend in Houston with some colleagues, who are there for work for a different client, before flying up to Kansas City (Missouri.....not Kansas) for the week. Unfortunately I'm here in KC alone - I have a team working for me here, but they live in KC. So in the evenings they go home, and it's dinner for 1. It's been over 4 years since I was last in the US (unless you count a half day jaunt to the outlet mall near Bellingham two years ago-which I don't) and even then, that trip 4 years ago was Vegas (which also sort of doesn't count). The only time I've been down south before was in 2010 when I visited friends in Arkansas and Texas (Austin). So I thought I'd share some observations about the south/central US, because, well, it really is a differ
