How To Clean A Bain Ultra
This morning it went into the international the shopping mall, where you naturally took much too much nice things you had to take with me and slowly I am also concerned about the luggage capacity of my suitcase, but no matter. I have seen in any case rarely such as shops and art here. An Apple store, the only iPhones, iPods and MacBook's incredible art sold at relatively low prices compared to Europe. Would not the clause that they can only sell iPhones with a contract from Telekom would be one of them certainly have been mine, to see the good times but. Then we drove back to the hotel to relax ... In the evening we made our way into the cinema. As we watched on Saturday Today, the next movie. Avatar, the new film by James Cammeron, in 3D and the most expensive film of all time. In any event worth seeing, what I did not think, but good so I was pleasantly surprised :-)
Tomorrow will then go to 13 clock to Hooters, where we will meet with Dimitri from there, the last shopping for brought home and then it goes into the Outback, where we will be meeting with our tour manager Debbie. About 9 clock are Jerry and his family are added and we will end your day ...

This morning it went to the airport around Jan to take his flight so we had now the last remaining group of our adopted and sent back home. Then we were supposed to meet at Hooters with a friend, who canceled at short notice, because he did not have to work and managed futures. So we made our way to Ocala. Just before the goal heard Micah's Mailboxab on which the message was from Ron, who had to adjust our plan for personal reasons, so we drove back to Tampa and checked in to the Marriot. After we moved into our room and completed some organizational stuff, we went to the gas station to buy some beer. There were a few minutes earlier Verfolgunbgsjagd between two children who had borrowed a car and the police. This ended in a crash with the bumpy Getaway car and a police car front. Children were taken away, taken accident, but of course not 2 police cars to reach doer so no need for it in America to seven police cars, a car of FBI / CIA and a large forensic team for whatever, a very interesting thing ...
Then we made our way to find a restaurant that was us. And so we spent the evening in a cozy pub and played pool and watched the football games on over 35 flat screens.
Back in the hotel we drank a beer and lay finally to rest. Go tomorrow we will meet then with all the anticipation by Ron in Tampa and also shopping again in the International Mall
More tomorrow ...

P I T Y R I A S I S _ R O S E A Liver
This term we want to leave the ground and take a closer look at the rooftops from this metropolis. We think that they have a lot more to offer than what we find today. The Mumbai rooftops are looking for your great ideas to redesign them.
Almost all buildings in Mumbai have flat roofs that are usable as roof terraces. Sometimes watchmen use a niche within the terrace as their place to stay during the night. Sometimes people use a corner of the roof terrace to dry the laundry. But normally these roofs are kept blank and clean. The best places of Mumbai are unused and free! Free for your ideas.
Not rarely during the year the air in Mumbai is heavily polluted. Especially close to the main transit axis the air is bad plus the constant noise of horning cars, taxis and Rickshaws and its running motors are threatening the people. Height helps to escape from all this. Living far above the ground is clean and quiet. Mumbais rooftops offer convenient and comfortable places to stay.
Why not adding more green and plants to the roof terraces? They help to cool the whole urban context and offer its inhabitants a cool and comfortable private place in the outside. What happens to all the water during the monsoon season that hits the roof terraces? It should be easy to simply add a system of rainwater collecting in the roof terraces. When we redesign the rooftops in a modern and sustainable way, we can change the climate of the whole city and improve its abilities to sustain heavy monsoon rainfalls and long dry periods.
Almost anything is possible high above the ground. Only make sure that your design is lightweight, adaptable, easy to assemble at the place and sustainable. Will you design a garden café, a pool for the housing society situated in a jungle roof garden, or is it a small living pod for an artist who is using the roof terrace as his atelier garden? Will you connect several roofterraces with each other in a team of with your colleague students? Or maybe you like more the idea of having a yoga garden, a Bollywood dancing school or an internet café with a waterfall…?
This, and so much more is possible and it is all up to you. Have fun, and enjoy the wide panoramic view: Mumbai Buena Vista.

Pokemon Soul Silverenglish Action Replay
In the heart of the Mumbai suburb Bandra lies one of the few open water tanks of Mumbai. Today this small artificial lake is abandoned and wasted. The surrounding urban context shows a high level of mobility. It is not only a central hub for the Taxis and Motorrickshaws but also has contact to the Bandra railway station.
The task is to transform this abandoned urban space to a site in the city that provides the surrounding with a usable recreation interface. Especially the connection of the urban space with green and parkelements and the water have to be solved. Additional activities that attract people and increase The total amount of users have to be implemented.
