Astronomy and Coffee

Vacations in Croatia, no computer, no papers, no books related to work, not even mobile phone! Just family, beach and sun! The hotel's food was OK, not very good, there were some dishes that you just couldn't eat ... deserts also were not their strong point, there was actually a recurrent cake ... EVERY MEAL :-)

Drinks, not first level, but drinkable. After all it was an "all inclusive" week!

Weather was very good! We couldn't travel around because Matheus got his first tooth, and that means some fever and a lot of complaining because it hurts and itches! So long time in the car was not his mood for the week! But he enjoyed the beach (pebbles not sand), even though the water was too cold for him. Only in the last day he "agreed" on getting in the water for about 10-15 minutes. The rest of the time he had fun in an inflatable pool with see water that we left everyday on the sun to be warmed before we get there :-)

It was good and relaxing. A bad point about the hotel is the "mobility". If you have any sort of mobility problem (needs a wheelchair or has a baby carriage) it's not the best place to go. There are stairs everywhere and no elevators and mostly no ramps.

The plane trips are always a problem. Delayed flights to go and to come back and damaged luggage. Now I have to write a letter asking to be refund for my damaged suitcase ... and that takes time ...

Back home a very sad new. My grandmother passed away the night before. She was going to meet Matheus in December ... now it's dealing with sadness working.

Work! Back to Garching! Pre-imaging for the two groups, so the sooner we prepare the masks, the better!!

Also matching my objects with the literature ... not a very simple task ... no one measures positions properly (I guess me neither) so matching data is a nightmare.

Also some programing on the KG project. I'm back to basics ... let's see where do I get!

Tomorrow an extra point to be worked ... new proposal!
