And I’m off: going to pay my taxes, then to Karlsruhe for a train to Oberstdorf. Tomorrow morning we leave for seven full days across the Alps though Austria and Switzerland to finish in Torbole at the North of Lago di Garda at the end of next Thursday (expected). In Italy until Saturday, [...] June 25th, 2009
A couple of years ago I wrote a lot about milk. Now I feel like I am writing a lot about cycling. But never am i writing anything useful about cycling, just “I went cycling” or “I like cycling”. I went cycling last night after work. We did a trip to Dobel, followed [...] June 6th, 2009
There are still some things that I want to do before I leave Germany/Europe. These things include, but are not limited to: June 1st, 2009
I have a confession for the world: I am concerned about my Alpencross readiness. I knew that going on vacation would set me back some, and it has, but I’m not sure that is all that I can blame. We’re talking about six consecutive days of intense bicycling, and trekking, carrying everything I [...] June 1st, 2009
A couple of months ago I wrote to you about my reaching the mid-point of my year here in Germany; now, I have but four months left. Time is going by rather quickly. The past two months have been incredible. I have been blessed with visits from some of my dearest friends. First, [...] June 1st, 2009
I am currently feeling the sting of the post-vacation credit card bill. Aside from cash-advances in four different currencies in the past two months, in the past one month I have spent a lot of money on petrol. And in fact, I just returned the other night from another business trip that I [...] May 25th, 2009
MK, the Brownman, and I deked into the Zürich Apple Store opening on Friday, enjoying the high energy and the free t-shirt. There’s a bit about the store on ifoAppleStore and TUAW. May 17th, 2009

Today is the day of the Badische Meile in Karlsruhe. This is an 8.88889 km run throughout the city of Karlsruhe. The distance is quite manageable; I haven’t run in some time but I have been on the bicycle a few times lately so I hope that I will be fit enough to [...] April 28th, 2009
On Saturday night Mr. Orovan, Mr. Scott, and myself visited Munich’s Frühlingsfest (spring festival). The festival is “family friendly” and had a large number of rides, skill games, food stands, and other ways to spend your money. It also had a couple of beer halls/tents. I was actually quite surprised to see all of [...] |
