New Class

I started my 3-Week course on Monday. The class is "Planning and Management in Construction." We had an introduction lecture and group formation on Monday. Then Tuesday and Wednesday were spent preparing for a presentation, and we presented (as a group of 7) two chapters of the text on Thursday. The Class started at a fast pace, but now that the presentations are done we will be having guest lectures for a week, with no work to take home. And, this weekend is a three day weekend because we get Monday off for a Holiday.

Last week I went to the Distortion festival in Copenhagen. It was just a half week of parties in streets around Copenhagen. I have never seen so many people gathered in one area in my life, certainly not dancing in city streets!

I am very pleased I made the decision to attend the three week course because the weather is so pleasant. Tomorrow I plan on biking to the beach then going for a little run there. Certainly something I couldn't do (comfortably) a few weeks ago.

About 50% of my friends have gone home, but there are still plenty here to spend time with so I can't complain. Have a great weekend everyone!

Zell Am See & Krimml Falls

The last two days in Austria were spent in Zell Am See and a day trip to Krimml falls.

Picture #1 is a picture taken at Krimml.

Picture #2 is of the lake at Zell Am See. Behind me in the photo you can see some buildings on the shore. One of the buildings to the right of me, off my left shoulder, on the shore is where we stayed. It was a youth hostel, and as far as we could tell there was a class retreat currently taking place. There were a lot of kids everywhere, but we did get to see them learn how to wind surf, which made it worth it.

Photo #3 was taken at Krimml falls. It was a really sunny day and the spray from the waterfall offered a lot of good rainbow photo opportunities.

Photo #4 is of the kids trying to wind surf. They had a lot more luck then we did at Roosevelt when we tried. But, there boards were really stable. For them, standing on that board is the equivalent of me standing in a boat.

The photo below is of me riding a goat at Krimml falls.
