Sweden (Dec 2002)

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 00:17:09 -0800

I spent December 10--17 in Sweden. For the he majority of the trip I was at the 3rd International Conference for Systems Biology (ICSB) 2002 in Stockholm, though I did manage to spend a little time exploring Old Stockholm.

For two days after the conference, a friend of mine, Henrik, showed me around his hometown of Lund.

In general, I took pictures of things I thought looked cool. As such, I don't know the signifigance (if any) of many buildings. Henrik (or Annika) can you help?

St. Lucia (Nov 2004)

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 12:29:06 -0800

A week after returning from Germany, I was off to St. Lucia to work with geologists in the caldera of a volcano in Sulphur Springs park.

After our field work was complete, Pauline joined me, Becky and Andres for a very relaxing five days. Among other things, we went swimming and snorkeling at the beach. On Friday night we dined at a streetside market in the nearby fishing village of Anse La Raye. On our second to last day, we went on a hike through the rainforest, down to a secluded waterfall, where we opted for another swim.

A group of us decided to go surfing on a fine summer day. I can't remember exactly which day, or month, for that matter. However, I'm pretty sure the year was 2000.

Pauline, Tim, and Dominic surprised me with a trip to San Diego where we rented Segway Human Transporters. We spent several hours driving them around the La Jolla beach area. It was alot of fun!

I wouldn't recommend buying one of these machines, but they sure are neat to try out, especially if you're an engineer at heart.
