Day 10 (11th July): Bamburg in Honeymoon
Today we had a half-day in Bamburg, and spent the afternoon and evening sailing out of the Main-Danube canal into the Main river. Sailing is kind of an over statement, because for the most part I...
Day 9 (10th July) Nuremburg in Honeymoon
Today we spent in Nuremberg. Last night after Regensburg we left the Danube and went into the Main-Danube canal. La Professeure was very interested in knowing when we exactly start our stretch in...
Day 8 (9th July): Regensburg in Honeymoon
We spent today at Regensburg. It is a bigger town, but the 'cool' part - the old town - is still in walkable distance from the dock, so that was the part we spent our time. However, this was a da...
Day 7 (8th July) Passau in Honeymoon
Passau is another one of the smaller towns we dock at. We only spent half a day there and that was enough time to see what was worth seeing. Before that, last night we passed by Linz, and I wan...
Day 6 (7th July): Melk in Honeymoon
Today is much more laid-back compared to previous days, when we spent the day in a big city. Come to think of it, they were all capitals - Amsterdam, Budapest, Bratislava, Vienna. This time our ...
Day 5 (July 6th): Vienna in Honeymoon
I knew that the one day our cruise line gives us in Vienna isn't going to be enough, but after seeing around for a day, I think it'll take several days to do all the things I would want to do her...
Day 4 Jul 5th (Bratislava) in Honeymoon
It was a (relatively) easy day, since Bratislava isn't that big and have that much to see. We woke up at 9, and had a leisurely breakfast, and hung out to wait till the boat gets into Slovakia....
Day 3 July 4th (Budapest) in Honeymoon
It's the third day of our honeymoon and the ship has just started moving. The ship is small compared to other river cruising ships. It holds only 150 guests and is relatively old, I think it en...
Day 2 (3rd July) : Amsterdam/Budapest in Honeymoon
I napped a little bit in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. When I woke up from my nap, it was day time already and the stewardess were offering the breakfast package to everybody. An hour later w...
Day 1: Wed 2nd July (New York) in Honeymoon
It was always going to be a lazy day. I made the mistake of trying to work half the day. There was a little bit of work to wrap up before I can give it to the new guy, though he is taking a week ...
Recapping a Month in Trichotomy
Making an impact Wow, it's been a month since I wrote here. It's not that there aren't stuff happening, it's just that I have gotten lazy about writing them. Four weeks ago we went out into th...
Performances in Trichotomy
Star Trek and Butterfly The Star Trek performance two weeks ago, and it was fun. The pianist who was supposed to play the Skywalker theme and Darth Vader theme did not show up until the very las...
The Next Step in Trichotomy
Upstaging myself I was hoping to take a breather with piano after the Carnegie Hall concert. So it was nice not to have any performances to worry about in the past 2 weeks. It is true I was as...
Performance Weekend in Trichotomy
Carnegie Hall Concert, Take VI So I performed at Carnegie Hall again last Saturday. It was my second time playing solo, and first time playing with one hand... so does that count as a half-solo ...
To be Appreciated in Trichotomy
Short note before I go on... So, my 6th Carnegie Hall concert is tomorrow. Strangely I don't feel as much of a panic as I did in previous years, even though I am arguably less well-prepared. I t...
Merrily We Slog Along in Trichotomy
Astro- and Particle-physics Last weekend we spent a lot of time visiting La Professeure's friends in the city. On Saturday afternoon we went to the Theatre district to meet with her college room...
Been There, Done That in Trichotomy
Company Man I have not written much because nothing much has happened. I think, after the wedding, there really isn't anything new to look forward to. My routine these days are pretty monotonous...
Songs, Snow, and Dark Matter in Trichotomy
Songs and Merriment Last weekend was Take II of my sister-and-law and my house concert. Learning from the "mistakes" of Take I, we got much less food, and prepared more of them the night before,...
Hello Prosebox, Goodbye OpenDiary in Trichotomy
I suppose all good things must end. 10+ years and 930 entries (8 of which were favourite-only) later, I must leave OpenDiary. I've been reading the 'last entries' of open diarists and realized ho...
