Mürren

Tuesday, November 6th, 2007

In order to get to the cablecar for Schilthorn, John and I hiked from Gimmelwald to Mürren. Mürren is slightly larger than Gimmelwald, but the views are just as picturesque.

I’ve got a fever, and the only cure is more cowbell.

Fall in Delft

Monday, November 5th, 2007

I returned from Eurotrip II on Saturday, and on the walk back to the apartment, I noticed that fall had officially arrived. The trees have all changed colors, the streets are covered in leaves, the temperatures average around the upper 40s to mid 50s, and as of today, the second quarter has begun.

I have four classes this quarter: Systems Engineering, Measurement Techniques, Electrical and Information Systems, and last but certainly not least, Ethics. These courses are the main reason I came to Delft (besides the opportunity to travel), so I’m really looking forward to the next few months.

Regarding my website, I plan to finish blogging about Eurotrip I and continuing with Eurotrip II. Since there are a lot of stories to tell and pictures to share, the website is going to turn into a sort of “river blog,” with new posts coming every few days or so.

The story continues in Switzerland…
