stress ...

We have lots of it right now ... "Stress is a biological term which refers to the consequences of the failure of a human or animal body to respond appropriately to emotional or physical threats to the organism, whether actual or imagined. It is "the autonomic response to environmental stimulus." It includes a state of alarm and adrenaline production, short-term resistance as a coping mechanism, and exhaustion. It refers to the inability of a human or animal body to respond. Common stress symptoms include irritability, muscular tension, inability to concentrate and a variety of physical reactions, such as headaches and accelerated heart rate."

the shoes ...

"Today we arrived in Kona, Hawaii. Chris McCormack, Tim Marr, Kjell Schiöberg and myself are staying in the Waikoloa Village some hundred meters above the famous and fancy Waikoloa Beach Resort. The guys are getting ready for the race on Sunday 29, which is the Lavaman, a small pro race, but a race packed with age groupers.
Today in our condo we shot a short Under Armour commercial with Chris. Macca uses the Under Armour shoe for the first time. We look at his feet after the race!" [biestmilch] They look good Chris --- Kjell

USA

Mainland - Our first location is LA: "Los Angeles (pronounced /lɒs ˈændʒələs/ los-AN-jə-ləs; Spanish pronunciation: [los ˈaŋxeles]) is the largest city in the state of California and the second largest in the United States.[1] Often abbreviated as L.A. and nicknamed The City of Angels, Los Angeles is rated as a beta world city,[2] has an estimated population of 3.8 million[3] and spans over 498.3 square miles (1,290.6 km2) in Southern California.

Hawaii

We are back on Hawaii. This is my first time to come here not for the Ironman Hawaii. I like Hawaii allot: "The Island of Hawaiʻi, also called the Big Island or Hawaiʻi Island (pronounced /həˈwaɪ.i/ in English and [həˈwɐiʔi] or [həˈvɐiʔi] in Hawaiian), is a volcanic island in the U.S. State of Hawaii in the North Pacific Ocean. With an area of 4,028 square miles (10,432 km²), it is larger than all of the other Hawaiian Islands combined and is the largest island in the United States. Hawaiʻi is said to have been named for Hawaiʻiloa, the legendary Polynesian navigator who first discovered it. However, other accounts attribute the name to the legendary land or realm of Hawaiki, a place from which the Polynesians originated (see also Manua), the place where they go in the afterlife, the realm of the gods. The Island of Hawaiʻi is administered as the County of Hawaiʻi. The county seat is Hilo. It is estimated that as of the year 2008, the island had a resident population of 201,109."

Leaving Sydney with Macca

Today,we had to leave Sydney with Chris and go to Hawaii for the project #macca09 --- Kjell

what a flight

That was a flight. We took the A380 from Singapore to Sydney: "The Airbus A380 is a double-deck, wide-body, four-engine airliner manufactured by the European corporation Airbus, a subsidiary of EADS. The largest passenger airliner in the world, the A380 made its maiden flight on 27 April 2005 from Toulouse, France,[3] and made its first commercial flight on 25 October 2007 from Singapore to Sydney with Singapore Airlines. The aircraft was known as the Airbus A3XX during much of its development phase, but the nickname Superjumbo has since become associated with it."
