Welcome!

Hi to all of you! Welcome to our Blog! We are looking forward to our journey and we are also looking forward to telling you all about it :-) That's maybe because we are sadistic (yes - defenitely) but it could turn out that instead, we will show you - from time to time - how nice, cosy and warm it can be at home in comparison to freezing in a tent on a mountain or getting soaked by rain while waiting for the d... bus to pick us up in the middle of nowhere... depends on the places we will stumble into, the people we will meet and the experieces which are in wait for us.... So everybody of us can be a winner at some point in time during our journey! don't miss it when it's your turn at home :-) And ... don't you forget us ! You can be sure that we will miss you all ....

Mirko and the jumping killer-fish - ein Heldenepos


It was Tuesday, 15:34, when Mirko, the strong and fearless hero from Germany dared to approach the dangerous waters of Bonito in order to look the fishes directly into the eye. Hundreds of big and bigger fish could be ovserved swimming around in the cristal clear water, waiting for (expecting?) our hero. Our hero went nearer and nearer without showing any fear or hesitation.
Having considered all possible dangers ("Do fish have teeth?") our hero felt seflconfident and safe. He kneeled down to show the current fish-leader who is going to be the new leader here. He started to explain the fish how he (our hero) intends to take over the power in the river right now and how the fish and the whole fish population need to follow all his orders in the future. And then our hero commited his only error, which turned out to be fatal: he held a cookie in his right hand. Unaware of the fishes greed he waved the hand around above the waters surface.
At this moment the fattest of all fishes (probably the trained Killer-fish) gathered all his powers and jumped out our the water at least 1m trying to get the cookie our hero held in his hand; Unfortunately the killerfish seemed to be shortsighted or bad in mathematics as his calculations turned out to be slightly wrong and he bit Mirkos little finger instead!! AAaaaahhh!!!
After our hero stopped bleeding like hell, he was furious and decided to have Sushi this everning, but it was impossible to identify the culprit among the hundreds of identical fish and the fish refused to surrender the finger-killerfish!
Therefore instead of having the adequate fish-massaker and a big sushi in the evening, we showed up at the local hospital to get our heros finger fixed and desinfected (Tetanus injection and the whole programm inclusive :-( )
All plans to take over the power in the fish-pond had to be cancelled...but our heros diet plan includes fish for the rest of his life - as a revenge!
What´s left to say is that our hero stayed totally cool all the time, although it must have hurt very bad and it bleeded like hell (seems the fish have good dentists which keep their teeth sharp)!
We can be SOOO proud ouf our hero!

This was Renate live from Bonito with the daily news.......

P.S.: Ask to see the scar when he is back!
