Immergut Festival

This weekend was festival weekend … Immergut Festival!
Second time on this small festival with only about 5000 visitors each year … but in this case the fraction of friends (greetz) on the festival is higher :)
Some very nice but non-major bands … and of course camping, a lot of BBQs and portable toilets!
Was great fun …

Pictures are as usual in the internal part of my gallery …

Hiking up Le Mole

On Sunday I had a very nice hike 6h30 up to Le Mole. You can see some part of the extremely nice view from the peak of the mountain.
Besides all the fun, I had to learn (even though one could have guess before) that a single yoghurt for breakfast is not enough for doing a hike like this … hmm! … and I can still feal the way down in my knees … but it was certainly worth it :|
More pictures are in my gallery …

Science & Fiction

Had a bit of both today … after having had a short glimps of the real ATLAS detector I went to see the fiction version of it in the new Angels and Demons movie in theatres.
Quite a contrast I have to say …
But despite the mixed-up science especially in the beginning (featuring actors like ATLAS, CERN, LHC, …) … it is quite a nice movie …
I only fear a little that the outreach committees in particle physics might have a bit more work during the upcoming weeks …
to helps those guys here’s two enlightening links

“Live long and prosper”

I almost forgot to post it … I also saw the new Star Trek movie last week. Despite some hardcore fans complaining about the plot not fitting in the whole federation story, bla bla bla … I actually liked the movie … definitly worth seeing.

Hiking online

Since we had some troubles finding nice and well described hikes, and maybe also because I like adding things to my webpage, I now have a section on hikes.
Each hike comes with some information on duration, height and length, with a map and an elevation profile … the last and very nice hike I did on Sunday is also in!
I’ll try to add more over the coming weekends/months/years …
