We Are Marquette!

In the end, it seems as if Bob Wild was too much for me to stay away for more than six months, so I am returning to Marquette University for my senior year. Syddansk Universitet had its perks (like not doing anything for the entire semester), but I do value my MU education.

One final trip, to Amsterdam, and I'll be home. Have I made the right decision to come back?

Only three days until I am forced to leave... I think Sesame Street was right on the "ball" with this one:

T minus Kiel Days...

Das größte Segelsport-Ereignis der Welt, das größte Sommerfest im Norden Europas: Kiel heißt zur Kieler Woche Skipper und "Seh"-Leute aus aller Welt herzlich willkommen.

I have no idea what that means, but we were there, at Kieler Woche Skipper, or whatever it was. There was food from nearly every region of the world (Swedish food was oddly missing), so I settled for some Israeli, Turkish, and a Danish dessert. I did however enjoy watching Sebastian eat a nearly one meter long bratwurst from Poland, and Fabien managed to find the French Fry station (those French love their fries???)

Needless to say, there was plenty of food, for even the most exotic of eaters. Oh, and we were of course in Germany, so there was plenty of beer. All in all a great little city festival on the port.
