Exit Weekend:
Life is set to start moving fast. I checked out of my room this morning, and have been running around taking care of all the formalities. Tomorrow morning at 7:00 am (10pm Pacific time) my flight leaves from the Stuttgart airport. By 6:00pm (eastern time) I should be in Ithaca and (if all goes as planned) be in my apartment by 8:00pm ET. This would only be a 20 hour travel day in all, but I'm flying through London-Heathrow (recent terrorist attempts) so anything could happen. The day after tomorrow, I figure out what I want to do at Cornell this semester and try to find my way around a brand new place, then classes start the next day, on Thursday. Then, less than a week later I'm skipping a few days of school to fly back to Seattle to be in Tim's (friend from UW) wedding and see everyone, both of which I'm really looking forward to.
Life is crazy, but I love it.
Anyhow, I've been making use of my quickly dwindling time here. This last weekend, I went with the crew from church up to Nürnberg for a last weekend of adventures. We crashed at Martin's parents' house and truthfully spent most of the weekend just hanging out, playing guitar, and playing games. But we ventured into the city Saturday afternoon and saw the usual... a castle, a few cathedrals (one with the pipe organist praticing for the next day), and bunch of old building, etc. It really is a nice town, but I don't have time to upload any pics today.
This afternoon and evening I plan to spend with Julian and family (not sure what we'll do yet), then I'll sleep at their place since (1) I had to check out of my room today and (2) they live very close to the airport. Its amazing how everything this summer has just worked out nicely like this.
Well, I don't know when I'll have internet access next, but hopefully by the end of the week I'll post a conclusion to the summer and get the last of the summer pics up. But the adventure's not over... Tomorrow, enter NY06!
