Macleans Whitening Strips 2010

22 km on foot, use it, use it ...

On a beautiful Saturday morning in spring, the tribe Mini-Combi, still fresh and available, rallied Apple Tree Bay at the edge of Ku-ring-Gay National Park just north of Sydney. For the moment everything goes well, they still do not know what to expect!



Routed shipmates, we're off, backpack, head for the summit of Mount Ku-ring-Gay. Then back down to Berowra Creek. Obviously AC up then it goes down, hard-drive. We cross a kangaroo and a few hours later, we reach our point of camping "just on time" at dusk.


tent up, pasta swallowed, morale is always rosy. I got you, you hold me by the beard ...


Mom and Baby Possum Possum undertake to steal our lunch. They are proving very agile and we escaped with a pizza less!



After a night's sleep (at least for some ... no comment for the bewildered face of some!), New start. Good morning, we drive along the mangrove meet a porcupine, a few birds lyres, and hear a myriad of other birds that remain hidden.




After another climb, the view is happily at the height!



Then, fearing to go beyond the closing time for the National Park and get stuck, we are accelerating the pace, however, enjoying beautiful bays. Ephrem on the back (pfff it is still heavy), Adam on his stomach, finally we reach our goal, exhausted but happy, and frankly very proud!

Christmas Wreaths Michaels

It's hot in the subway

Here is a parody of the pub in the STM in 1976, founded by Jacques Bouchard, for the campaign he beautiful in the metro. The STM is about to launch a new international tender for the renewal of the Montreal subway cars and did not see fit to include air conditioning. All major cities in the world have yet done.

Cities Paris, London, Copenhagen, Porto, Cologne, Vienna, Caracas, Rio de Janeiro, Beijing, Hong Kong, Santiago, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Seoul, Bangkok, Sydney, Cairo, Dubai, Tehran, Moscow, Barcelona and even New Delhi have gone or are about to pass, for air conditioning. In New York, Toronto, Vancouver, Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles, Washington, Atlanta, Baltimore, Miami, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago, the subway, buses and often also have air conditioning. Even the buses in Ottawa, Gatineau and Terrebonne are.

Throw a look at this video that the team of Richard Bergeron prepared to convince the mayor of Montreal and Chairman of the STM to change their minds before it's too late, for the next subway to roll 50 years.

Go Green! Positive attitude

Finally some good news from France!

After the shame and terror of recent weeks, we find the smile with the good news: the Greens at the top of League 1! But what does that have to do Lillois results of the ASSE, the reader asks incredulously?
Here we must confess a lie by omission: the Sticks in America are actually Etienne.
Yes, yes, we confess: our heaps called slag heaps and they say more often than biloute darling. Too young to have experienced the Epoch Times, we drank the shame of being Etienne throughout our childhood. And today, after winning the Superbowl, we can finally proudly support our hometown team ! Fantastic.
Thanks guys.

for the occasion, you spend a good rap video for us! (Thank you Greg)

Craig Quotes South Park Joke Episode

Elfi, promoted this year pedagogical director, has the honor of all small and large meetings that punctuate the lives of our indomitable Gauls school: business meeting, meeting after school , meeting on Saturday morning, meeting with parents not happy, colleagues unhappy, unruly children, the leaders demanding, and sometimes senators.

And yes, our small school seems to be the center of attention at the highest levels of government (if, in passing, someone could ask my manager to Paris to bring my income on my level, it would be nice ... would be nice ... would nice ... nice ... nice ... nice ...). Indeed, yesterday we had the visit of a delegation of French Senate at the invitation of the Louisiana senator (and former Governor) Mary Landrieu (yes, the sister of Mitch ), had done a small tour sugar cane and jazz clubs.

Organized by the Consulate, visits the school has held a half-morning and consisted of a fast lap of classes followed by a round table in the library. Unlike the last time , I was spared by the visit (the fourth had a history test) but Carole, Suzanne and Arnaud were honored Senate. To cite one, we will say only that the roster was composed of elected multiparty of Calvados, Aisne, South Corsica, Moselle, Finistère, French outside France, and Vienna! Can you find them?

Then everyone took a positive attitude to show our elected the best of our school, all in an atmosphere "not ceremonial" and actually quite Louisiana. Unfortunately, no photographer could capture this historic moment and it is with courage and humility that we take the road (right) and slope (hard) of the school year ...

the evening we were invited to the usual evening of the consulate. I'd be gone, but I was over at UNO ... too bad.

Update: we dug up a small picture ...

Winter is over!

Hi Guys!

Long time no see! We resume the pen after a few months of silence, months have been busy for that matter. A few weeks after the arrival of our little Adam, we set sail, leaving Neutral Bay (the suburb of Sydney where we stayed) and up the Parramatta River till Rhodes (still in Sydney) where we put luggage and board some time. Barely unpacked boxes and rack just hanging, we are again taking the plane till our sweet France to see family and friends, but good times!

Ephrem loves cartoons!

Full house!

Returning to Sydney in July, the heart of winter has been enlivened by the arrival of Alain and Monique Etienne's parents with whom we went into the corner of Jervis Bay (a few hours drive south Sydney) hunt galinette ashy the kangaroo and the blue whale equipped with our cameras. Gaze left the birds photographed by Alain!

Dance Lyrical Costumes

Return Of Cajun

This Monday was Labor Day: Labor Day USA, that is to say the day of the year when all sellers are at work. We
, we went to the Cajuns. Elfi had spotted a Zydeco festival in Saint Martinville, southeast of Lafayette with a night in a cabin to Breaux Bridg e . The Zydeco is like Cajun music, but even more pot, with accordion, electric guitar, nasal voice and often two washboard. Typically played by blacks in the bayou, the "music of Zaricot is also appreciated by everyone. Much of the directory is in Cajun French. It looks like this:


festival Actually, it s 'Rather, a party acting village: children, grannies and grandpas, little young, amateurs Sunday, experienced dancers and not a tourist. It must be said that through Saint Martinville we remember that Louisiana is the state's poorest countries ... mobile homes rotten roofs held down, windows broken, kids on the sidewalks. But the ball was super nice and good atmosphere with jambalaya, red beans and rice, light beer. The big surprise of the weekend, the public: the first time in three years that we see blacks and whites dancing, talking, joking together. Girls were more skilled than us in the ripples and lame ...

The next day, Lee, a guy who rents the cabin next door, explained that there are parties like this in every village of the country and that Cajun do not miss an: up to four balls a weekend! And invite us right away to his dance club ...
the evening, tired of zydeco, we will eat fish at Mulates , the culinary institution of Breaux Bridge, where we have right ... a concert of Cajun music. Still dancers, accordion and washboard. But here the musicians are white and there is also a violinist. And now the people of next table began to speak French!
short the next day, after breakfast 'Chez Jacqueline', we decide to exercise our bodies numb on the wooded trails of Lake Fausse Pointe State Park. This is one of the wildest places in Louisiana, along the Atchafalaya Basin impenetrable. Alas! No sooner have we made thirty yards that most rabid of the clouds of mosquitoes back on us. It's the sprint that we join the reassuring coolness of the air-conditioned car. Anyway, moments later, the heavy clouds open and pour all over the bayou waters of heaven.
So to console us, it was purchased a car ... a way to celebrate Labor Day by driving up sales of the car dealer.

is anyway a good upgrade, right?

It takes great inner strength to withstand the pressure that surrounds the school mode. I wish to state here that we have not assigned and Sibylle eventually buy it with his Christmas bonus! As for Philomena, she received a gift. Of course, the object is at the center of incessant traffic, toilets in the canteen through the car-class-at-point-where-the-mistress-is-back occupies active minds our dear students.
