Then we're off to do our first shows in Belgium

Figure out how to fit it all in the van

Give them a quick test

Unwrap our new mats

Assembling the gear.

We got a nice sunny day to put the gear together.

A good way to get over jetlag and try to remember how to be an acrobat. We are staying at a sort of guest house in the country side near the German border. The weather is very changable.

Picking up the roadcase.

The day after arriving we picked up the van and drove about 200 km to a freight company near Schipol.

Our roadcase reminds me of a coffin !

Arrival in The Netherlands

.....says it all really....

Loonies at Strathfield Plaza

Only a couple of days before we fly out to Amsterdam to start a short tour , trying to set things up for next year. It's hard to keep focused on the job at hand , but we try. Working at a shopping centre in Stathfield has it's advantages , plenty of Korean food ! Bulgogi rules !!!

Last show at Centro , Bankstown.

This photo was taken before our 10th and last show at Centro shopping centre , Bankstown , Sydney , Australia.
The shows went well , the stage is a couple of metres too short for a half decent run up for the vaulting act but thats the way it goes.

7 days to go before we leave for Amsterdam !

Daniel broke the stage !

First show at Centro Bankstown and Daniel breaks the stage with one of his trade mark heavy landings.
Now the broken stage knows how I feel throwing the heavy so and so!
The shopping centre management were very efficient at getting it fixed.
The shows went well , good audience.

So many skis ! So few Teeterboards!
