Time traveling


It still is funny to realize that only 45 minutes after leaving Schiphol I touched down in Vancouver. Of course it only works when the time difference is left out of the equation. Time traveling that's what it is.  


A popular believe that Canada suffers from a harsh climate is contradicted by the weather forecast for the coming days. Mediterranean temperatures I would say. These conditions  help to appreciate the blessings of modern technology such as air conditioned automobiles. And what also helps is seeking refreshment in a cold can of Canadian beer. Speaking of which, I had a look around town to get my bearings and found myself on University Drive. A location that calls for a 

photo to be taken of the premises where I will spend much of my time the coming months. The location was chosen with great care I discovered when I turned around. Opposite the main building one could find the Central City Brewing Co.  Leaving not many reasons for students to go walkabout...

Time flies...

That is when you're having fun. Yep, a cliche but very true nevertheless. Just over week before the big jump across the puddle is going to take place. Looking forward to an exiting adventure. 

 
It also means that the next project has to wait a while. Tough choice I know but one I am very willing to make. 

Something else entirely is leaving miss P. at home. Will be different. But then there are a few nice breaks to look forward to. 

Explore and absorb will be the slogan for the next 6 months...
