Out and About in Wuerzburg

Long time no post! Everything has just been really busy lately so I haven't had the time to type something up and get the pictures and everything. So the first weekend that we got here, we explored the town here a little bit more. It's really a nice place...I've some pictures!

This is a view of the Alte Mainbruecke (Old Bridge over the River Main) on Saturday...there was some kind of market or fair going on so the bridge was packed!

Another view of the bridge, this time taken from the surface. The sides of the bridge are lined with statues of the old ruling prince-bishops, and at night it's really cool; there's only one set of lights for each opposite pair of statues on the bridge, but the interference pattern is such that both of them are lit up...it's hard to explain but I'll get a picture sometime.

This is the microstructure laboratory at the University. I don't personally do much work in this building (the main Physics building looks kinda boring) but I've been in it and it's really cool. It's kinda like AMPEL back home...though this building probably looks cooler from the outside.

The castle up on top of the hill is really cool. I've pictures from when we went up there but maybe I shall post those another time.

Last weekend I went to Munich! I will post about that, with pictures, later. In the meantime, I have to get back to work!

I like all the open space and the blue sky. HK is so crowded that sometimes you even couldn't find the sky!
