DC day 2

Well it has been two days since I landed in DC and what can I say, other than it is hot and humid. Other than that it is a pretty sweet place. I was able to see quite a bit yesterday, namely a few of the Smithsonian buildings and the Washington Monument and the White House and Capitol buildings. After all that walking I was already drenched in sweat so I thought, ah what the hell I will go for a run. I now know what the people who sweat a lot normally feel like, and I have to say I did not like it at all. Lets just hope that Bremen will be significantly less humid. Next on the agenda is the welcome BBQ in Georgetown U and after which we shall be in conferences for the next couple of days.

So begins my longest day of the year.

I am sitting here at 6:14am and in exactly 24 hrs I will be on my flight to DC. I am tired, a little sun burnt, and definitely the most excited I have ever been in my life. I just got back from a beautiful weekend with the most important people in my life, besides my family of course and it could not have been any better. The weather was perfect, the company perfect, the cabin, you guessed it, also perfect. Now all I need to do is pack which as of right now is not going great, but I will soldier on. Pictures and video to come from the weekend when I get a few spare moments.
