'merica!

Holiday of Selfies

We survived our holiday in Honduras!



Nothing was stolen!



There were no hurricanes!



We did not get a sinus infection from scuba diving...



... and we did not even vomit on the rough boat ride to the island!

So it's back to this:

Overheard (aka "Faking it!")

F overheard one of my respected colleagues talking to yet another job applicant. The colleague knows very well that most of our graduate students are preparing for careers in industry and do not do research. Said colleague pointed to F's office where F was helping two of our graduate students with their homework. "They are having a research meeting" he whispered to the candidate.

Happy Valley

We spent the day being amused in amusement park Happy Valley.

Scary kittens that we are, we did not take all the rides.

This one looked fine.



Being upside down for a whole ride took a little more balls.



Look at Amanda in happy anticipation of so much fun.

Just another day in China...

... with just a touch of culture shock on the side.
