Tidbits…

It was really awesome last night to hang out with Cathy again—she’d been gone for so long and then our schedules precluded seeing each other until last night.

Beyond that I have more to say about my time in Berlin, but I feel like blabbing about other stuff that’s been happening out there, both in […]

Thalys Geography

Because of some unplanned problems with my travel, I spent an hour exploring Antwerp’s new central train station.
