It's good to be home

After a month of this

I came back to this

The autumn in Munich was very mild, lots of warm days, and only a couple of brief snowfalls that immediately melted. Then, the day after Christmas, we got four days of solid snow, which was good for the family, who wanted to see snow. We also were able to visit Neuschwanstein in snow, and also Salzburg - and, of course, Munich. Most of January, and the beginning of February, it was snowing. Not an overwhelming amount, though, just a few inches every few days. In fact, I enjoyed the snow; there wasn't too much of it, and it looked very nice. A change of pace from Florida. The temperature was pretty steady, right around freezing, but not brutally cold, so my jackets that I had brought with me served their purpose admirably.

The best part was that I met a lot of great people and I'd like to thank them for making my time in Germany worthwhile:

Karl, Philip, Alec, Connor, Sophie, Billy, Will, Timo, Astrid, Luis, Tessa, Sebastian, Helmut, Lukas, Guido, Alexander, Wolfram, Gerald, Dirk, Ruslan, Sandro, Nicole, Aino, Christian, Thomas, Annette, Veronica, Michael, Jack, Klemens, Peter, Carolyn, Merit, Maria, Alexandra, Shyam, Eno, Kevin, Ralph, Steffie, all my students, and last, but not least, Coco.

I can't wait to return!
