Sub-human Christmas hater leaves a bomb in Potsdam Christmas Market

We spend 3 months living in a lovely street in "old Potsdam." That is where the city's Christmas Market is located. Very nice to just leave home and get immersed in the nice spirit of Christmas and enjoy the traditional glühwine. But then, exactly the day we left Potsdam, this happens. Unbelievable.

So many people go the the Christmas Market, particularly some many children go to the Christmas Market. Lots of mothers with strollers. Unbelievable.

Passamos 3 meses vivendo em uma rua adorável na "velha Potsdam". É aí onde Feira de Natal da cidade está localizado. Muito bom sair de casa e ficar imerso no bom espírito do Natal e desfrutar do tradicional glühwine. Mas então, exatamente no dia em que deixamos Potsdam, uma bomba cheia de pregos foi encontrada, não longe de casa. Inacreditável.

Tantas pessoas vão a Feira de Natal, particularmente crianças, e muitas mães com carrinhos de bebês. Inacreditável.

Bulgarian restaurant in Vienna

In our first evening in Vienna, we went to investigate the area near our apartment and we found Seasons, a small Bulgarian restaurant. While Denise enjoyed the always good schnitzel I tried Gyuvetch, a Bulgarian dish, which I believe is named after the beautiful clay it is served in.  The pictures tell the story. At the end, I enjoyed the meal along with Bulgarian beer Zagorka. - - - - Na nossa primeira noite em Viena, fomos investigar a área perto do nosso apartamento e encontramos Seasons, um pequeno restaurante búlgaro. Enquanto Denise aprecisava um schnitzel, sempre bom, eu tentei o Gyuvetch, um prato búlgaro, que acredito ter o nome do lindo pote de argila que é servido. As fotos contam a história. No final, eu gostei da refeição juntamente com a cerveja búlgara Zagorka.

We spent two weeks at the Geodetic Observatory (GO) Pecný, located in a hill 1.5 km near the village of Ondřejov. Ondřejov itself is about 1 hour by public transportation from Prague. A bucolic and picturesque place, located inside a forest. We stayed in a small cottage they have for visiting researchers and scholars. GO Pecný date back to the 1960's and their main activity was the determination of astronomical latitude, longitude and azimuth, evening operations. Later on, they started to perform satellite photography, also evening operations. Therefore, an infrastructure was necessary for the scientists and technicians to stay overnight. The main office building, built at that time, had offices each one with a bed, and every floor had a kitchen, bathroom and shower. Today, a similar way of working exists. The scientists, engineers and technicians may spend two or three days living in the office, doing the rest of the work in other places such as Prague, Plze ň ,  or even at t...
