Large Blister On Butt

see the light!

I'm back online!
Yes, I'm still alive, even if someone has reported missing ...
The fact is that these last 2 weeks have been really devastating! And devastating intend to stay less than 4-5 hours a night, all for the presentation that we did this morning.

It 'been a grind, but at least it was worth it, it went really well, happy stakeholders, we happy to have made a good impression but especially happy for ourselves ...

And tomorrow you will go home! Then restart at a time in Bremen on 28 ...

Now I understand well that the idea of \u200b\u200bbeing in front of the computer writing makes me a little 'sick because I risked running out ... So I
merely add a bit 'of photos in the slideshow on the right and in this post I show you a bit' of photos of previous issues. Below I put even a few lines to briefly describe places:

Cité de l'Espace
We went there last Sunday, late morning and early afternoon. It 'was the only time that we allowed ourselves to relax ...
It is a sort of open area (like our experiment) dedicated to space, from launch vehicles, satellites, humans in space, etc ... What can I say, thankfully it was free (if not wrong to celebrate 10 years of opening), and entering now as interest in the sphere of space, certainly of the interesting things there. To make it very interactive, however, becomes a sort of playground, so I had to pay the entrance (do not know if it is 15 or 19 €)
I would be a little 'turn ...
However the fact is that we had and above all, we took a half day of relaxation ... and although she was full of children, and then relax so to speak ....


Albi to Albi we went past the third weekend here in Toulouse, namely Saturday, June 10, in addition to me were Amir, Sandro, Salvo and Stewart.
Albi, a city which were derived from the Albigenses, Cathars that success (see post on Cathars ) is very pretty, with features pink houses (such as Toulouse and Montauban), built at the turn of the river Tarn.
fact, there are several bridges that connect one of them really impressive. There is also a very beautiful Gothic cathedral (do not remember how to call it). But above all there's a hidden fountain that we had to cross. There is also a video (I wonder if I'll show you) that while Amir took over we decided to go through all 4 same time, starting from the 4 corners .... Obviously we have come out wet, but more than anything else you know that if you walk through the diagonal of a square, they will inevitably meet in the middle .... here is more than meet, in that case have "collided", I miraculously have passed unscathed, but the other 3 have made a big bang, that even you "feel" in the video, although it is done by a dozen meters away ...


Andorra Andorra spend even less on words, we went there and I Sandro C. here the first Saturday in Toulouse, which is May 26.
I said that I will spend a few words, because on the way you can admire beautiful landscapes, as it is in the heart of the Pyrenees.
The city, however, is just an incredible cluster of houses in the valley and the only attraction of the place are the shopping malls.
Yes, because Andorra is a free port, and this means no taxes .
It 'worth it to shop? for me, definitely yes, I bought the camera at 60-70 euro cheaper than anywhere else I would have paid ... but there is already saying that I needed.
is worth going there on purpose? this is already a more difficult question, one that costs very little there are cigarettes, alcohol and CDs. Basta. The rest will cost a bit 'less, because we do not pay the VAT, but is a place where life is very expensive.
say that on average, not talking about alcohol, tobacco and CDs, you'll save 10-15%, not more ... On things above, however, it really saves a lot, I bought two towers, 100 and 100 cd verbatim dvd verbatim, total € 47 ...

Bogen Tripod Leg The Practical Review

Weekend in Lyon!

Bon jour tout le monde!

Tonight I am writing to tell you how things went this weekend, when I went to Barbara Lyons. Prepare yourself and make yourself comfortable, or maybe read a little 'time because the reading will be long ...

First I will tell you that I am writing these opening lines of going on the train, TGV direct Toulouse and Lyon. Why is my laptop behind? No, I did not become suddenly a nerd, which is unfortunately on the outward journey and I have to return to work, because we have a delivery on Monday ... But I'll take a few moments of pause to describe almost in real time what happens to me.

'd start with the mess made to get tickets, as well as the difficulty to find them because almost exhausted (yes, here we must necessarily book on virtually all trains, no hope trips up ...), the mess has obviously been with the credit card ... not mindful enough of the adventures with the gas station (for those who do not remember, click here), I buy tickets on the Internet, where obviously do not accept my e-pay. I do pay then the paper by Amir, who has also bravely offered to accompany me to the station this morning, thanks again !!!!!

all right until this morning, pick up the tickets provided: the self-service machines so cool, touch-screen, etc.., Please enter the reservation code and in a moment, the tail will print the ticket. Ticket pick happened: after the queue at the ticket, as the self-service obviously did not read the paper by Amir! Withdrawal occurred at 7:43, depart 7:50 hours by train. ...

Travel to: TGV

addition to the 15-minute delay in departure (ah ... ah ... this high speed.) in all cars entering quietly, just in my rather long tail and slow ... I try to understand why, but I realize my only entry into the train, and that group of a dozen girls and a couple of kids, I think it is something colony type / travel oratorio or similar ... Clogging due to mothers and fathers clearly cumbersome and oppressive, Neapolitan-style, the beautiful scene where I sit in my place, quard out my window and I get a shot because there are all these parents crowded and stuck to the windows to look inside and greet the girls ... The girls are strangely Very quiet, there is a long silence, it will be thanks to air conditioning here is that there is a ball and hibernate all ... I was even forced to put a shirt that does not match with the shirt that I have here! However, this TGV Tarella lot! ("Tarella": v. intr. Reg., Is called Tarella the act of moving at very high speeds than you are used).

update near the end of the trip: the girls were not so quiet, had their wake ... luckily I have the headphones ... Even though a couple of kicks and slaps I received the same ... Another thing, someone who found himself standing there, I do not understand why, you may not have made the ticket el'han done on board, boh ... Finally, the beautiful high speed with all the (usual) view that we rush past, but there is the problem when you enter and exit the tunnel, the pressure difference is created: the ears are filled up and make a bad dog! And not only me, judging from the faces of other passengers ... ORAI of arrival: 11:49, we'll see if he has recovered or not, I do not know the schedule of milestones, now that I think I do not know what is the first stop of my cabbage as they are organized! So in addition to see if it will arrive on time, there will also be seen whether it will come down to the station right ...

Lyon, Saturday

Again when I write these lines on the train, this time to return, I have just split from Lyon, will change in Montpellier (where the train will no longer TGV) and I should be in Toulouse for about 19 ... but the conditional is a must, I saw no less than 10 minutes to change ... of going

The train has finally made a few minutes late, I got to the station and right, which gives more satisfaction, I managed to find the train platform to find and Barbara Once off the train! And without the help of mobile phones!

But how were these two days, in fact, these 26 hours in Lyon? Start of course from the station, really messy, you need to pass the first 5 minutes of complete bewilderment, then you can understand quite well how things work ... found Barbara, we went to our hotel, a 3 star found on the Internet at half price, and the hotel was really great, and also near the center and an underground station, a pity that the area was not so great ... that is, taking the example of Turin, Porta Palazzo, S. Salvario also are close to the center and very connected ... Going to the hotel, in fact we just stumbled in the middle of a thing that seemed both the Balon. Do not want to sound paranoid, but going from there some fear due to my nice laptop bag and unambiguous I had shoulder m'è come ...

First visit, the Cité Internationale, Lyon, an area of \u200b\u200bfully designed by our architect Renzo Piano. A really fantastic place, with several conference centers and hotels (also of course a Hilton) but also the palaces and offices of both houses, all very beautiful! It must not have anything bad to live there!

Lyon has a strange place, is at the confluence of two rivers (the Saone and the Rhone), and has a part to the west and east of the two rivers, in the middle there is a peninsula, but is this island which ends where the two rivers meet. After the area of \u200b\u200bRenzo (now is my friend), we did around a central island and in the historic part of town, which is west of the island, across the Saone, and is connected by several bridges, one pedestrian (la Passerelle du Palais de Justice) ... here, this bridge can give people a little bit of trouble 'sensitive, because really fluctuates a lot, especially in the center, because Barbara was not at all peaceful, mindful of famous bridge in London by Foster ...

The center of Lyon is a lot live! Above all, the historic area, one across the river, there are lots of very nice restaurants with attractive exteriors and in alleyways, in smaller pubs, etc.. all with a lot of people around. Walk for those ways is very nice, I recommend it! As now I'm seeing all over the south of France, and as Amir also taught me to be typical of Islamic countries, businesses here are often grouped together in the streets or in neighborhoods. Especially places where you eat or where there are fun, are streets full of restaurants exclusively, then a street with many clubs side by side streets full of other "kebabbari" ... The choice of the restaurant was very difficult, because there were several very curious and we would have liked, we then opted for a "restaurant agriculture," or something like that, anyway, we ate very well.

Prices in the region? Difficult to stay under 20 euro for a decent dinner, you're going out quietly under 30 with a full belly and standing on flat average price. I think I can say it is a good value for money!

The end of the evening was spent in a pub run by a Texan and I discussed (in a cheerful and nice, not bad) because according to him, "lager" means nothing and that's just us Italians to ask for beer lager, no one else ... So I then set a "Chimay, Belgian beer, which sold in the bottle, saying," That's a double malt "and doing a pretty face slapping, convinced of my statement, but we have actually read the label together and did not say anything like that ... I mean, check this theory, documenting and will let you know if I discovered something that surprised me a lot! In particular I will ask our fellow German Enlightenment ...

Lyon, Sunday

This morning after a breakfast buffet, we headed again toward the west, this time to take the cable car that took us to the top of the hill, dominated by the Basilica Notre-Dame de Fourviere. Really beautiful and impressive, despite having little more than one hundred years. The view from the rooftop terrace was really nice because you see the whole city there, but all things considered, then there is plenty to see in addition to many houses (you know that Lyon is the second largest city in France as a dimension?). After visiting the cathedral (with a few minutes of formal French included), we have also seen a Roman theater, which should be out by Italy's largest left. For us spoiled Italian (speaking of the Roman ruins), nothing particularly shocking ...

After descending the hill, a simple lunch at a boulangerie in the same area on Saturday night, then step back to the hotel in the bags and transfer station, this time with the media and do not walk, to avoid to come back in some areas, too ... if the tram were some great players, some of whom slept on the benches with several bottles around ... Everything went quietly, in any event, we arrived at the station and after a while 'I got me back on the TGV to Montpellier and then I had to greet Barbara, who started half an hour later ..

return trip: TGV and

Everything ok the way back, if only this time I was near the window and the lady with the place next to mine, which was bound to stand up for me to sit, and was on crutches stiff knee ... was not very comfortable thing, besides the fact that I was almost feeling guilty ...

The change Montpellier was a lot more fun! Arriving at the track, I discovered why the French succeeded in placing on the track right at the coach on which they had to go, and I had miles to catch me every time my ... Easy, there is a kind of display that read " Composition des trains "(I think ...) with the schemino the train, the carriages numbered and letters of reference of the track, so you already know where to come! So I placed under the letter "T", since my car (the 13) would come there and thinking, "Azz, I'm really forward 'sti ... French." The train arrives, the coach that stops in front of the T is the number 2 ... I do so all the track to get to the bottom of the train (this time including all the French), arrival until the end of binary thinking, "Ma 'sti fucking French do cool with 'this stuff and then works a cappella, but the last carriage has reached the number 7, the train continues ... but there is no sidewalk in practice had stopped long before. Then came the police station, he stopped all the people coming down / going up, closed the doors, then the train began to move ... With no doubt have understood and that in fact the train had just broken down, I followed expectantly my car number 13 after I had passed in front until the train has stopped moving forward and have opened the doors ... Guess where I was? Under the T!

The journey is almost over, almost in Toulouse, but I have a few weird things to report: the fact that the whole trip I kept the computer on your lap (on the TGV had the table) and it has also used by scaldotto the stomach due to the usual air conditioning, but also a fantastic bibitaro! I do not know what was happening, but spent half an hour in a compartment next to mine which I think is dedicated to the pulling down of supply Cristoni incredible at every turn, slowed or accelerated ... I think I've heard some swearing French but given my knowledge of the language I'm not sure ... It 's true that this train is fast, tosses a bit' in these maneuvers, but I thought the experts were used to ... oh, well ... we are almost there, I hope to find Amir or his representative should be coming to pick up ...

Last step, of course, the publication of this post ... While I'm here to work for a delivery room that we have tomorrow ... Good night to you that you can go to bed ....
