Tims River
I’ve been going around Germany these past few days (Hamburg & Munich), got a couple pics up. Pretty tired now, need me sleep, off to the airport tomorrow, going to London for the weekend. Haven’t been there in a decade or so, so we’ll see how things compare to what I have in [...]
Stockholm Syndrome
Just had a big dose of Sweden. Spent about three days taking in 2 cities, Lund and Stockholm. Had to go to Lund for a meeting involving the project I’m working on, figured I’d check out Stockholm while I was in the country as well.
One thing that totally impressed me about Sweden was [...]
Loondt
It’s spelled Lund, but pronounced Loondt. It’s a pretty nice town in Sweden. Internet access is hard to come by for me (currently in the middle of a break in our project meeting here), but will write more about Lund and hopefully Stockholm (planning on going there tonight) later.
Last night was the official [...]
iCrash
My iPod mini crashed or something, wth? Stuck on screen with a Snow Patrol song, no audio, backlight on. Guess I’ll wait for the batteries to die and hope that fixes it.
Movin On Up…
Well I saw a new place today, since the 2 weeks or so I’ve spent in my current room have been not-so-amazing, not bad, but think of the shittiest dorm on campus in your undergrad years…yup, that’s my room.
Babett, the administrative chick in our Neuro- and Bioinformatik department here at the University, drove me to [...]
Best Of The Wurst
Germans must really really love bratwurst and currywurst, it’s everywhere, I’m talking Starbucks everywhere.
Shame I don’t eat meat, it smells great though, wish I was a cheater, settled with fish n chips tonight.
Trains moving, goodbye Hamburg.
Lovely Daughter
I went over to Travemunde yesterday, Luebeck’s Lovely Daughter. Nice scenic town, good folk, good food, great park. A big screen was setup there to show the opening game of the World Cup, so figured yesterday was a good day to visit the place, only 30 or so minutes by bus.
Stopped by a [...]
Foo-ball
Football Fever starts tonight. World Cup opening game baby.
Oh Crepe!
Yesterday I went to downtown Luebeck again, this time there was another carnival type deal (wonder if they have it every Saturday at a different part of the city…). This time, instead of the promenade being crowded, it was the bank of the river. Many more things, 2 stages with music, kiddie rides, [...]
GPG
Well I finally got around to it, I made myself a public/private key for encryption use. I’ve wanted to do this for a while, almost did several times actually, but never went through with it, just read up on it a lot. It’s free, so why didn’t I make one?
Nobody I know cares [...]
