Hey there

I have to report a lot!! yesterday I had my early birthday party together with my hostbrother John!!! We celebrated in Stiltsville, the best place in the world!!! There were a lot of John's friends, 6 exchangestudents and some friends from my school and it was just awesome!! We met at 9.30 at the Biscayne Bay Yacht Club and the first thing happened to us was meeting a guy who was from Linz ( yessss where Bianca and I am ( actually) from. )We heard him talking german, ok austrian and asked him where he was from and... well very funny... anyways, at about 10.15 we left with two boats. One big Boat ( Thanks John!!!!) and one smaller one ( Thanks Bruce!!!) But after 10minutes we ( on the big one) saw the smaller boat and everybody on there was waving. We thought they wanted us to take a picture so I took one but then we realized the engine was broken down and they were stuck on the boat :-) anyways, then we pulled them the whole way to the house... on the way it was so cool, beca!

Suddenly there were dolphins swimming really close to our boat!! It was amazing!!!!Well, when we arrived , there were some boyscout friends of John and we started to jump off the railing. Then we ate Sub-Sandwiches and after that we started jumping from the roof in the water!! It was so much fun! ALMOST everybody jumped. The funny thing was that everybody said it was cold! Guys, that was not cold! It was a little bit  breezy, but come on... :-) well we were lying in the sun, jumping, eating ,having fun and then i got my birthday cake!! ( check out the picture!) It was the best cake ever!! A Finding nemo cake!! I love finding nemo!! ( Just keep swimming :-)) and well, I was standing there with my cake, all these wonderful people around me, the radio was playing " tears of happiness" ( only the austrian guys know the song, but it soooooo pretty) I realized I am in Miami and I started to cry... i think it was the first time of my life that I started to cry because I was so   happy!!!

Well after biiig hugs and a lot of "ooooooooooooohs" I was ok again and they sang happy birthday to me and John!!! :-)
One hour later the party was over  and after the last jumps we went home !!!

I want to say thank you to everybody who was there, helped or brought presents!!( No I will not open them before my real birthday!!!!) Especially i want to thank John, Helen, John ( jr), John (Harisson), and Bruce for making this thing possible!!! I love you guys!!! It was just awesome!!!!!
