Why Our Insiders Chose This Tour
This is the best choice if you want an all-inclusive visit to the Blue Mountains -- a tasty sit-down lunch and scenic cable car and railway rides that cost extra on other tours are all part of this package. And petting koalas and sailing under Sydney Harbour Bridge are the icing on the cake.
What You Can Expect

Board the Scenic Railway, the world's steepest railway, and descend through a cliffside tunnel to the floor of an ancient rainforest! Disembark and have the option to walk along 1.5 miles (2.4km) of elevated walkways through the lush rainforest.
From the forest floor, you'll step into the Scenic Cableway's fully-enclosed cabin and ascend the cliff, getting breathtaking views of the Three Sisters, Mt Solitary, Orphan Rock and Katoomba Falls. Then head to the Scenic Skyway for more fun as you glide across the Jamison Valley, soaring up to 885 feet (270m) above the valley floor.
After working up an appetite, head to the award-winning Conservation Hut cafe in Wentworth Falls for a delicious 2-course lunch with views across Valley of the Waters. Then enjoy an easy walk around the Wentworth Falls lookout points after lunch.
Catch a last glimpse of Blue Mountains National Park before you head to Featherdale Wildlife Park to see a variety of Australian wildlife. You can even opt to hand-feed kangaroos, koalas and emus!
After cuddling the critters, return to Sydney on a boat cruise up the Parramatta River, gliding past waterside suburbs before going under the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge, where the tour ends at Circular Quay.

Customer Reviews
January 2015
If we could give 10 stars, we would! From the moment we were picked up at our hotel, the day was beyond our expectations. Dave, our guide, was informative, humorous, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and lot of fun! The itinerary was perfect, the small group was convenient, the choices of restaurants for morning tea and lunch were fabulous. The ferry ride back was the perfect end to a perfect day. Some other people in our group took the large group excursion and were moderately happy. We HIGHLY recommend this excursion!

Gillette cuts Texans deep yet again…With CD, OneTexFan and Dan P.
As I reflect on the Texans' final game of the season, and the season as a whole, I'm both proud and disappointed, I'm hopeful but doubtful, I'm fired up and tired.

Not all the schools fault (306 comments)
Easy to blame schools but the parents spend much more time with their children and should have a more formative influence on the child. Many don't, I am not sure why they even had children. My child can't read.... I could read before I ever got to school (Thanks Mom). My child has no work ethic and so on and so forth. Until you fix your parenting don't try to fix the schools or even lay the blame at their feet. If your child is underperforming or if your employee is underperforming, what have YOU done to resolve that issue?
Sun Sparc Workstations (702 comments)
I used to administer a stack of 20 or so of these that were 15+ years old. Roofed leaked in the server room directly above them. Water ran down the entire stack and pooled on the floor. I opened each machine and there was no water inside of any of the cases. This pissed me off because I was really hoping they would die.

It seems as if Cowboy Neal is no longer upholding the traditions of super villains. Why do we continue to use him to represent all that is evil in the world..... New Year calls for a new Villian. Really what has he done? I have heard of no foiled plots of world take over, no failed super weapon experiments, no diabolical viruses being generated, etc I am certain at this point his only crime is polluting the atmosphere after eating a burrito. Please help us find a true villian to hate and despise and defeat in every way.

George W.
Bill Gates
Steve Ballmer
I suggest the last person who told me to RTFM instead of answering a simple question.

The breakfasts are great. A wide variety of speciality including the Dutch, potato and ligonberry. Tremendous thick bacon. All worth the wait. A real treat.

You better be hungry when you go to Walker Brothers. You might have to wait in line a few minutes, but the food is really worth the short time in the waiting area. The crispy crunchy french toast is simply out of this world. Eggs Benedict choices are superb, and the potato pancakes are great. Even the oatmeal was mmm... More
They have the best pancakes and eggs. Their omelettes and hash browns are good also. We have been eating here for a long time and they are very consistent with their food and service.
Been coming to this location as well as the other 3 on the north side for many years. Don't recall every having anything other than an excellent breakfast/lunch. Fresh orange juice is consistently excellent. Very long wait on weekend. Even during the week, can be a line and limited parking in the smallish lot.
This was the 3rd or 4th visit here. I come back once a year, due to this being a favorite of my cousin's. Every month or two, a few of my relative's get together for breakfast, to chat on family updates, and to see what everyone, plus the kids & grand kids are up to. I remember my dislikes from... More
Walker Brothers is one of our favorite places for breakfast as it offers the famous apple pancake which is so mouthwateringly delicious it almost defies description. It takes almost 1/2 hour for them to craft, so sit back and enjoy some of their tasty coffee and nibble on their thick sizzling bacon or sip fresh orange juice while you wait.... More
Walker Brothers is loud and crowded, mostly because happy customers are chatting. The wait is well worth it. Potato pancakes and the corned beef hash are outstanding. Great atmosphere for a good breakfast at any time of day.
This local landmark is worth the wait. When we arrived the place was packed, but the staff has it it under control. We were seated in no time. The restaurant is loud and because of the crowd it always seems busy. The staff was very friendly and the service was quick. The menu is majority breakfast items, prices seem a... More
One of the best brunch places I have been to, and I am from the South, where we love our brunch! It's not fancy, it's not eclectic or "cool", but the food is really good. The portions are huge.

If you are willing to spend good amount of time on Sunday waiting, have trouble parking, wait in crowed entry …then go to Walker Bros. The food is solid, mostly breakfast items and decent size portions. Coffee, for breakfast place, should be much better.

Man! No love for this product... Many reviews have stated the original rules are complicated or flawed. Granted, I had a hard time working out that rule set but I have seen worse. Next you get the gripes about the subject matter. You play CRIMINALS (gasp)! Give me a break. As if decades of playing dungeon delvers or supernatural monsters is somehow morally superior. Know your group, be mature and never forget it is a game. Do this and you'll be fine. That said Dog Town is a mature game and some of Cold Blooded Games offerings are a little too dark (for even me). Still Dog Town is the best recreation of those gritty hard boiled crime stories from the late 70s, early 80s. Even more modern fare like Reservoir Dogs and Sin City can be recreated with this game. I did a one shot game retelling The Warriors and this did great. This system is a lot simpler but I still ran into a few glitches (probably more due to my newness to the system). Even if you don't like the system the vast material these games offer are great resources to port over to the system of your choice. The art work is very professional and appropriate. The writing is similarly well done. Did I mention both the original rule set and this mod are free? Really, the bad press this game has gotten I feel is undeserved. If you and your group are mature can handle the subject matter and are up for playing the scumbag side of the story Dog Town Stripped would be a good place to start.

3 stars for me. A person not otherwise interested fictitious criminal activity has nothing here to draw him in.
While revealing the seedy underworld of the world we live in, there is just too much going on. The page count while at first impressive, is filled with a lot of details that the DM running the game would spend more time learning than ever putting into use on the game table. The details of the Life are presented in one liners from a couple big movies, the rest of the work is lists and charts for things that should be worked on during play.

Dog Town Core Rulebook
From: Cold Blooded Games
Reviewed by: Ron McClung
Dog Town Core Rulebook is a new RPG Core Rulebook PDF from Cold Blooded Games.
I am not a huge fan of anything that glorifies criminal behavior or gives kids the chance to explore that side of themselves, so going into this I was somewhat negative. From page 5 of the e-book - Dog Town is not a fantasy role playing game featuring supernatural beings, magic or futuristic gadgetry. It is a realistic role playing game dealing with the adult themes of criminal and street sub cultures. It aims to be an authentic portrayal of urban life and criminality in 1970's New York. Interestingly, the first thing that the author disclaims is not the behavior of criminals depicted in the role-playing but the language used, including racial slurs and sexual orientation slang. I guess the author was more worried about offending someone rather than encouraging criminal behavior. In defense of the author, however, he does state up-front that the role-playing game was inspired by the gangster and street crime movies of the 70s and 80s like Good Fellas, Taxi Driver and Scareface. DISCLAIMER: I first want to make it clear that I do not condone criminal activity of any kind. Secondly, I want to WARN the reader that there is some adult language used in this review that is straight out of the book. I have edited the language out in some places, however, in other places it is required because it is part of the game. This game is not for children and neither is this review.
From page # 5: "Made it, Ma! Top of the world!" - Cody Jarrett from the classic gangster movie White Heat goes out with a bang.
Content: The setting is late 70s New York City, in a crime ridden ghetto. Players are "anti-heroes trying to profit" from a corrupt world. The background provides a relatively detailed historical account of NYC at the time. Provided is an extensive background of the crime culture of the time along with major names. It goes on to describe the area known as Dog Town - an isolated region on the East River in New York. It is broken down into neighborhoods which are later mapped out in reasonably detailed maps (that look like they were made in something like MS Paint, but they are functional).
Character generation is considerably extensive and detailed. Along with the systems for standard raw attributes, derived attributes, and skills, there are also Criminal Type (class), Special Talents, optional Flaws and Vices, a Criminal History system, and a way to generate connections. The classes are in general terms. There are ten Criminal Types including the Asshole, the Broker, the Heister, the Hustler, the Thug, and the Racketeer. More is explained about Criminal Types below.
The criminal history is simply a guideline for the criminal's history and includes background information from early childhood to early adulthood. It also supplies lists of typical family names for specific ethnic groups and a general guide for nicknames. The character generations section goes into contacts, hang outs, considerable list of skills, combat values, Power and Respect, Influence, Back Rolls and Warnings as well as arrests and offenses on the criminals rap sheet.
After the rules and combat chapters (covered below) is a the Director's (GM's) section, guiding a gamemaster through how to run a Dog Town adventure. Nothing out of the ordinary for this chapter - just guidelines on different styles of running the game.
My comment on content - it's enough. There could be more flaws and vices as well as talents, but it works.
From page # 31: "How do jou like that eh! You f*ckin Maricon. Jou think you can take me. You need a f*ckin army to take me. I take you all to f*ckin hell."
System: The character generation system is a point allocation system where everything costs points. The number of points is based on the style of play - punk, gangster or anti-hero. Attributes development points are differentiated from skill points which are differentiated special talent points. The Atttributes are Bulk, Power, Toughness, Reflexes, Brains, Sense, Control, Style, Experience, and Luck. These are straight values bought by attribute points and can range from -2 to 5. Then there are Derived Attributes (Trauma Resistance, Hurt Modifier, Injury Points, Move Straight Speed, Climbing, Maneuver/Balance, Endurance Short, Long, Reaction Roll, Balls, Discipline Roll, Suss Roll, Know Streets, Coping Roll, and Hostility Rating) - which are derived from the other attributes through a series of equations. For instance, to calculate Injury Points, add power x2, bulk x4 and toughness x4.
At the outset, I was turned off by this initial part of the character generation system. There needs to be a quick reference for all the equations. This did not fair well for the overall system. Equations need to be intuitive and a GM or a player should not have to go book diving for an equation. I feared that this system was also based on equations like this.
The Criminal Type was a little confusing at first. The player can choose one or two types (multi-classing). The Criminal Type does not restrict the player to anything. It simply gives the player 20 extra points to spend on certain skills, special talents and skills which are cheaper than the usual ones. There are also Drags or Flaws and Vices that the player must take at least four of. This is an interesting and imaginative approach to a class system. Something like the d6 system could benefit from an approach like this.
Special Talents are like d20 feats. As I said before, there could be more of them, but there is enough to make things interesting. The interesting mechanic behind these is that they are divided up into packages and if the player takes them as a package, they are cheaper. Vices and Flaws are rolled randomly, if not chosen from the Criminal type.
The system is called the Split System. It is a table reference system with a 20-sided die (d20) roll. The player must generate a value and cross reference vs. the opposing value (a difficulty or opponents ability value) to determine a value to roll a d20 over. The problem I have relates to my previous worry in character generation - the equations. The values are determined through equations like the ones referenced in character generation. For instance, skill values like Break and Enter are calculated by Reflexes x2 + Sense + Brains. Every skill is different. I have the same problem as I do with the equations in character generation - too many! They should be intuitive or there should be a quick reference somewhere.
There is an interesting mechanic if a 1 or a 20 is rolled. However, because some of the rules read like a statistic book, I do not understand the rule. From what I can gather, in either case you role a second d20 and count that into your failure or success. However, I am not quite sure how the second roll factors into the failure. Another constant problem I had with reading it was that the rules were not clearly explained, at least to me. There were occasional examples, but they were not any more clear than the rules. It made the game even less attractive.
Another interesting aspect was the Behavior mechanic set up in the game to reflect the extreme in behaviors criminals tend to exhibit. There are three factors in Dog Town to represent this - Suss Roll, Balls, and Discipline. Suss Roll is rolled when a criminal really needs to assess his situation and his chances of success. Of course, this is not a level based system, so there is no way to measure the "challenge rating" of a situation. Therefore, it is really up to the GM whether he wants the player to survive or not - a characteristic of all no-level based systems. Balls is basically the bravery of the player (and sometimes the sanity), and Discipline is the measure of how level-headed the player is.
Another interesting aspect of the game are the rules on running a Racket - the steady income of a criminal. This system provides a detailed system allowing players to create their own business deals and see the results of the deal in games terms. It is based on the character's skill, influence and finesse, and can result in great benefit or disastrous results. There is a rather large list of rackets to choose from.
There are also rules for delegating to non-player characters (NPCs) and measure the loyalty of those NPCs, Boss bonuses, giving orders to flunkies, and putting the competition out of business. There are also rules for laying low, torture and chases. These include an interesting array of classic cars and their stats. There are many other rules relating to the criminal underworld that I could get into, but it would make this review entirely too long. Let it be said then that despite my misgivings on the rules and how they are explained, they are thorough.
However, I do not want to leave out combat. The combat or violence system is very detailed and covers a wide variety of actions. It attempts to make it realistic and break it down into eight essential steps: Balls Test, Reach, Reaction Speed, Combat Mode, Attack Roll, Injury, Stuns, and Blood Loss. There are several charts and lists to refer to in each stage, making combat somewhat complicated. Injury is more than a simple roll to be subtracted from hit points, and I found myself so confused, I did not care anymore.
A nice gem however is that it does detail some fighting styles for hand-to-hand combat like karate, boxing and street fighting. That was kind of cool. Rules on shootouts were also a nice addition, although I found combat so complicated that I had no desire to even look into it.
Layout: The PDF looked nice. Art was on par from what I would expect from a PDF. Nothing outstanding, but nothing so horrible that I needed to point it out here. It is a large PDF, but it is reasonable printer friendly. The tables are hard to read (and there are a lot of them) because there is artwork behind them, so those might not look good in printouts.
In conclusion, I am sorry to say that I was not overly impressed by Dog Town from beginning to end. The only thing I was remotely impressed with was the thoroughness and detail. It is not a half-*ssed job. However, I simply did not like the premise, did not like the system and did not like the overall game itself. I can tell the authors have a strong passion for gaming and I wholeheartedly encourage that. I assume there is an audience for this game and to them I bid them a good luck with this game. I hope you enjoy. I know I did not.
This game is not for children. It uses adult themes and adult language even in the color-quotes from the movies. I would not recommend this to anyone under 18.

Thank you for your comments. The rules or perhaps how they are explained are not to everyones taste (too complicated, too involved, not explained clearly enough) so you would no doubt prefer Dog Town: Stripped - a much simpler and streamlined character generation and rule set for the setting available as a free download from the Cold Blooded Games website.

Excellent resource for a GM running Dog Town or any other campaign based around criminal activity. This is the level of detail that I want for this type of product. There are place descriptions, maps, and characters included in this gritty setting. More than that, though, this sourcebook provides events to plug into each location along with organizational guidelines and motivations for two competing gangs.
I'm already impressed with the Dog Town rules, but Grenson Park takes this to a whole new level. I've managed to transfer this entire setting to another set of rules, and it works just as well as when I used Dog Town. Grenson Park is maximum bang for your buck.

With some things I agree with the previous review and others I do not. This system has a very strong base and is a cool idea but does need a little TLC but this doesn't require much from anyone to achieve. This system deserves 5 stars but unfortunately with the product promoted it hasn't earned it and I will explain why I will give it 3 stars instead of 5. First star loss automatically comes from the previously stated lack of proofreading. This system does have some of this and while from a professional standpoint the system is a mere 34 pages and this is more of a laziness or lack of knowledge and should have never been disregarded. The second star loss comes from various reasons. The system is very light and in some ways it does need some clarification but in others not as much because this is the way it is designed. The system was meant to be very open to interpretation and customizing because the author wanted the system to be able to become whatever it needed to be from those using it by allowing them to make it this way. There is a "Tweaking" section discussing this but unfortunately it is a little thin for those who need a bit of guidance to get it done. An example is power ups as it would be probable for others to advance and buy new ones like you can buy new traits, and there is new guidelines for what is too powerful or weak in creating them and there is not development point value for buying into them either (I personally work with 250 for each new power up.) And an example of something that needed to be done is style points as there is no obvious explanation for using this to the fullest extent. It explains when you gain them and what they are worth to buy a Joker but it doesn't cover recording them and documenting them. This is one REALLY EASY fix in that you treat them like Development points when scoring them and spending them. It's that easy to fix and basically every other problem is that easy to fix as well. Another reason way I dock the second star due to the lack of coverage on how to tweak the system is because the author is unresponsive about his own product. I have sent multiple emails with no response over the past year. I have even noticed a comment posted on his website which has been up for two months and no response as well. For this lack of customer service coverage of the product I have to contribute to this products shortcomings as well. To remedy this I suggest seeking out other BUST players in rpg forums and working things out together because it will be your best route of getting any help. Don't completely disregard this wonderful piece of partial-effort material..... ??? ...... It really does not take much to fully appreciate it as one gaming sessions could understand how to use it and only a few more hours to fix it. There is a world of possibilities and I wouldn't let what this author didn't do with it keep you from making it what it can be. I personally have worked on a new revised one sheet character sheet and a 4 page pdf that is all about errata and expansion that completely makes the difference and then the only thing you need is a setting and a story. 4-6 pages of work is about all this system is really lacking and for a free and wonderful thing anyone could put in the effort to fix it it and make it a masterpiece!

Setting: this has to be one of the most carefully researched settings I have seen. They have accurately captured a time, place, and setting extremely well.
Support material: They do very well; the suypporting detail is excellent. My only complaint is that the maps provided a biut bit hard to read, and might have benifitted from less color. Still, a minor issue.
System: a bit clunky, although less so than d20. The writers work very hard to pull it off.
Overall: very good. Not only useful as a game, but also as support data for modern or horror campaigns.

Wrigley Field, Chicago, Illinois
CHICAGO (AP) -- Rich Hill is auditioning for next season and so is Ryan Theriot. Their performances Friday were a pick-me-up for the Chicago Cubs against the sleepy San Francisco Giants.
Hill pitched eight strong innings and Theriot connected for his first major-league homer as the Cubs beat the Giants 6-2 on Friday.The Giants, who started the day 2½ games back in the NL wild-card race and 5½ behind first-place Los Angeles in the NL West, rested star Barry Bonds, who'd batted .538 with three homers in his previous nine games.All the Giants, not just Bonds, needed some extra down time. After a game in Atlanta on Thursday night, they didn't arrive at their Chicago hotel until around 2:30 a.m. CT."We have a lot of sleeping to do tonight," said Giants manager Felipe Alou, who didn't turn in until almost 3:30 a.m., less than 10 hours before the first pitch Friday."You have to be geared up and ready to play anyway. It doesn't matter what the situation is," said Todd Linden, who replaced Bonds in left field and lost a fly ball that helped the Cubs to two early runs."We got off to a rough start and just never turned it around," he said. "If you want to call that dragging. ..."Hill (4-6), who pitched shutout ball for seven innings, walked one and struck out six. Matt Murton and Theriot connected into the wind against Giants starter Noah Lowry (7-8), who gave up eight hits and six runs in five innings."This is the part of the season I'm also going out there trying to get a job for next year," Hill said. "You don't think about it. That's too far ahead."Theriot, who had a five-hit game Wednesday against the Pirates, is just enjoying where he's at."I'm seeing the ball pretty good, I've had a few drop in to get me going and it's been fun the last couple of days for sure," he said.The rookie's homer was unexpected."Everybody was shocked. Normally I get in trouble when I hit the ball in the air, even if it does go over the fence," he said. "So I try to keep it out of the air as much as I can and hit the ball on the ground."Derrek Lee hit one high in the air to left leading off the second and it got the Giants in trouble.Linden ran back to the warning track and flipped his sunglasses down -- the lights were on at Wrigley Field and it was partly cloudy at the time with the sun going in and out -- and then signaled he couldn't find the ball. With the wind blowing in at 11 mph, it dropped well in front of him for a double."I was a guinea pig for the first fly ball. That's the way it goes," Linden said. "I figured it was going to be on the track. I had the glasses down and it never came out of the sun. I didn't pick it up until it was too late."Lee ended up scoring on Jacque Jones' fly-ball double to left that made it 1-0. After a walk to Murton, Ronny Cedeno, in a 2-for-15 slump, hit an RBI single.Theriot doubled in the third and scored on Aramis Ramirez's RBI single for a 3-0 lead against Lowry. Murton's 10th homer followed a single by Jones in the fourth. Theriot led off the fifth with his homer."Obviously we can't go back on what's happened up to this point in time," Murton said of the Cubs' miserable season. They broke a six-game losing skid Friday and are still 24 games under .500"Anytime you play a team that has a chance at a wild card or the division title, the intensity level on their side is going to be heightened a little bit," Murton added. "Hopefully down the stretch we can play good baseball and take advantage of the spoiler's role."The Giants ended Hill's shutout bid in the eighth when Lance Niekro and Fred Lewis, both just promoted Friday from Triple-A Fresno, hit back-to-back doubles. It was Lewis' first major-league hit.Pedro Feliz made it 6-2 with an RBI double off reliever Scott Eyre in the ninth.Game notes
Giants second baseman Ray Durham started for the Giants despite leaving Thursday night's game in the seventh inning with a mild back strain. ... In his two previous starts, wins against the Diamondbacks and Reds, Lowry had given up just eight hits and one run in 17 innings.

Hi, I live in the south east of England UK. We have sown several sunflower seeds in May 2013 from a children's gift pack. All have grown one large flower, except for one. This seed has produced a seven feet tall plant, with a large flowerhead measuring 12 inches across. More heads have sprouted from the main stalk - 13 of them are single flowers, one is a twin, one a triple, and one a Siamese twin, where the flower is twice the breadth where two did not separate - it's an oval shape ! I have taken several photos 27th September 2013- will try to upload. How unusual is this, and what will the seeds from each strange flower produce next year? |

Hi albert_135 - would it be a virus affecting the original seed's development, or from the soil or air during growth of the plant? Will the seeds produced from all these strange flowers be affected and reproduce the mutated flowers? |
In my experience, you'll see this from one of two things. A nitrogen deficiency or excessive stalk stroking. Either way, it makes for an unique sunflower. |

Hi, DaisyChain, As an amateur zinnia breeder, I tend to be attracted to anything different. However, I have come to regret saving those seeds, because now it is fairly common to find a zinnia with a "broken" head, and I now cull and discard those. I have seen zinnia blooms with as many as five little heads all crowded into the same bloom. I don't think the broken heads are particularly attractive, and they now seem like a defect to me. |

A further bloom on the same plant has opened, and it has some extra petals - this plant is producing many variations on the theme, and I'd love to know how it does this, and how the different defects are possible from one seed. Zenman - thanks for the photo of the Zinnia - I'm intending to keep the seeds from each flower separately, to see what happens next year ! |

Aki and I decided that we didn't get enough of working out with each other. We went to Jenn Phelan's Saturday's Pilates bootcamp and we decided to head to Redline Fight Sports for some kickboxing last night. My friends from my running club Kristina and Rachel joined too! It was kind of exciting because when I walked in the owner Chris, the owner of Redline) recognized me, came over to say hi and even called me "Little Miss Runshine"! He asked what class I was taking and told me a little bit about the instructor Soap Am . Soap recently had a fight that he had won that he had the odds against him. Everyone loves an underdog-so I was excited to see what this class was going to be like. In my conversation with Chris, I also learned a little about his background and how he is an architect who decided to follow his passion and open up Redline. He would like to head back to the architecture world some day and-not going to lie-I was thinking it would be awesome if he ended up at my firm! Anyway-about the class…this would be maybe my 3rd or so kickboxing conditioning class at Redline and it was just as good as the others. Soap started us with a good warm up and stretch and moving into learning some of the basics of how to move and the jab and cross punch. He called out people trying to incorporate the cross punch before he went over it. He was really harping on the importance of form and learning how to do the move correctly. It was difficult for me to get the correct form after my arms were on fire from punching the air! Or as Soap called it…shadow punching. Man-I didn't know shadows could be so tough! If you want to get rid of that jiggle under your arms-kickboxing and boxing are the classes to go to! You also really work your core when you punch and kick. OK-let's just say it's a full body workout! It seemed like all the other ladies who came with me loved the class as well. Kristina and Aki were both already scheming on when they could get to a "Fighter Fit" class. We saw people doing the wheel barrel with other classmates and some other moves that were intriguing. What Aki and Kristina didn't see that I saw in other classes was that you actually carry your partner across the floor over your shoulder in some of the classes! I have never been, but I HAVE to try this! From talking with Chris, I heard that in some of the Fighter Fit classes you incorporate some TRX and kettlebells which have been workouts on my radar to try. Before I left, Wahset said hi and asked where my boyfriend was. He was my instructor when Dave and I went to try out the boxing class . I told him Dave wimped out! I also told Wahset how I must have remembered the boxing form from class because Soap said I was more in a boxing form versus kickboxing. He called me out and said he read my blog and how I took boxing classes in college! He was getting ready for a second class so we parted ways, but he said to be sure to come back. I told him not to worry-I'll be back! I really recommend checking out Redline if you have a chance. All the instructors, the people at the gym, and the owner, are incredibly welcoming and you feel like you can become part of their community. Not going to lie-as I was punching the punching bag, I was thinking, "How cool would it be to be able to fight like them! Maybe I'll become a fighter!" Then I realized that I might want to just stick with the classes for now and see how that goes! After the class, Kristina, Rachel and I headed back to my place for dinner. Dave was out at a concert with our friend Rob, so I decided to take advantage of this time to spend some quality time with some running ladies. I haven't done a ladies dinner in a long time because the times I would usually go are after tempo or hill workouts. Obviously I haven't been attending those workouts just yet so I tend to workout on my own time and then eat dinner at home with Dave. Last night, the ladies and I made Chap Chae and sipped on some white wine. It was a nice way to end a Monday-I must say. The girls and I are going to try to do some other workout/dinner dates in the future and I can't wait! Do you made dinner with your friends? We usually meet up to go out to eat when we catch up. I would make food with my running ladies after the workouts, but like I said, I haven't been going to those because of my hips! I think as a part of my goal of saving money, making dinner with my friends more often will be a new thing to do! Have you found a gym or a studio that you love so much because it has a great community? I like some of the studios I go to, but I haven't found one yet that I feel like I am truly a part of yet. I already feel SO welcomed by everyone in Redline! I even was excited to see Danielle who had helped us sign in when we went with our friends Kurt and Kim and Jeovanny who taught that class . I wanted to shout happy birthday to Jeovanny before I left but he was a little busy working out at the time! I didn't see Claire there but I think she teaches the women's only kickboxing class on Sundays so I am going to check that out some Sunday! |
