|  | a great diving weekend in Phuket I wasn't diving for 14 years and the underwater world did lure me to go back.
First I had to refresh all my skills and update my knowledge before I jumped into the water again.

| | About me: ? ? ?
? ? ? LOISL ? ? ? Who the hell is LOISL ? ? ?
***************************************************
Once in a while I get the question where my nick name Loisl roots.
It has nothing to do with Lois Lane, the GF of Superman....he he he, I don't wanna be the girlfriend of Superman...
Loisl is the local (austrian) shortform of a name called Alois or Luis.
Luis Trenker was the director and main actor of a film named "Der Berg ruft" (The Mountain calls)
The film tells the story about the fight of English and Italian teams against each other to climb the Matterhorn for the first time in history in 1865.
And I got the name because of beeing a climber when I was young.

| Bike action Ironman Zurich |
| | My favorite sport: Triathlon and Marathon running The Ironman:
*********************
3,8km Swimming
180km Bike

Some words about the marathon
*************************************
A marathon is a race
without race
without color
without religion
without sex
without prejudice
without nationality
without hate
A marathon is a race where everyone starts as an equal,
and everyone finishes as a winner.

A few tips and pics about Heidiland - the home of Heidi.
Heidi - the little girl every child knows - living in the alps with her grandpa and the goats.
The town where Heidi lived, according to the story, is called Maienfeld, probably not known to most of you. I live just 10km away from this lovelly place.
