Saturday night in Leipzig was both busy and quiet. Busy in that there was a mega-cross-town “event” with a whole lot of music on a whole lot of stages. Quiet in the fact that I decided I really only wanted to hit the G-Garage for dancing and not participate in the larger concert event. Quiet, […] Yesterday I took a walk around Weimar, stopping at the Weimar Office (grosse Kaffee), the Feinkost Hauffe (tortillas, Mexican Wave rub, chocolate balls), and in whatever shops caught my attention. Two of the shops caught my attention because they had blue jeans on sale at bargain (for Europe) prices, some even in the 40€ range. […] It’s been a great weekend. Yesterday I took the long walk that I’d been thinking about—from Weimar to Hopfgarten, a small village west of Weimar. I timed it perfectly. Minutes after I walked back into my flat the rain started. I then made bread and homemade pizza. The pizza dough used a recipe that my […] Today is Independence Day in Armenia! I’m going off to the parade, which is at 10 in Republic Square. It should be massive fun. After that I am not sure what my plans are, probably to visit museums in the city center. Yesterday I mailed 30 postcards (9,000 dram) to points in Europe and North […] Phallic Crossing Originally uploaded by elmada.

I also took a few photos, but have been too lazy to download the pictures to my computer, so you’ll have to wait. Hope you had a great Sunday! PS- Hopfgarten was […] Landgrafen Tower — Jena Originally uploaded by elmada. So earlier this week, I climbed to the top of the hill above my flat. Knowing myself, I realized that once I return to Weimar, I will loose any enthusiasm for climbing to the top of a hill in Jena. What had attracted me to […] The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía is probably Madrid’s second most famous museum, and after 2:30 on Saturday afternoons, it is free to all, not just those people listed in the fine print. I arrived at the Sofía around 3 having taken the long way there via the Atocha train station, and upon […] I just got back from a very long walk… I left my house at 10 this morning and didn’t get home until 6–most of that time was spent on my feet, save for an hour long concert and a couple cups of coffee. The weather was very Colorado-esque… you know, if you don’t like the […] |
