1-21-2018 Dolomitenlauf XC ski race

January 21st, 2018 · 3 Comments

Today started like any other day. Assuming you’re in Austria and planning to go skiing in a marathon distance (42K) cross country ski race. In any case that’s what was going on here today and I felt like it kind of worked out for me. I have no choice but to go out slowly because […]

1-20-2018 Checking out the XC skiing, finally

January 20th, 2018 · 1 Comment

This morning, after honestly not sleeping at all (I’m jet-lagged about as badly as I can remember). We got an early start, ate a quick breakfast and took a 45-minute shuttle bus from Lienz Austria up to Obertilliach via a serpentine road. One guy on the trip is a professor or something in Alaska and […]

I woke up this morning at about 1:30 ish after falling asleep at around 10 p.m. (sorry, 22:00 here). After waiting for the sun to come up and reading the Wednesday NY Times I brought with me from home in excruciating detail, it was almost 6:30 and breakfast was open. It was a standard European […]

Back in Aspen for Two Months

August 23rd, 2008 · Comments Off on Back in Aspen for Two Months

I’m super glad to be back.  Things are so much easier here — food shopping (well, all shopping), working out, life in general.  I guess the biggest thing that I realized out of our time in Barcelona is we are not city people (any more).  I love our life here, and it’s just great.  I […]

June 24th, 2008 · 1 Comment

 June 18, 2008.  Today was our last day in Barcelona and the boys’ last day of school (there was a half day tomorrow, but not worth the time).  So after some hectic packing and trying to organize our luggage, do everything that was left undone, including banking, getting the manager to come and see the […]

Week 43 — June 11 to June 17

June 11th, 2008 · 1 Comment

June 11, 2008.  Rocket left this morning.  It only took us a few hours at the cargo section of the airport to realize we were in the wrong office (after getting a call from the right office).  Then things went smoothly.  They were actually going smoothly anyway, but we assume Rocket would have gone no […]

Week 41 — May 28 to June 3

May 28th, 2008 · Comments Off on Week 41 — May 28 to June 3

May 28, 2008.  We woke up to a sunny day, which is not what the forecasts say, calling for rain (60 % chance).  Of course, for once the forecasts were wrong.  I attended a soccer practice, as usual, on Wednesday and took some near end of season photos including my conversation partner, Jose.   Jose admitted to […]
