Off to Germany, Czech Republic, and Hungary
Since I’m taking off on Tuesday (Sept 19) for my first work trip, I thought I’d resurrect this site as sort of travelogue. A bit of a rundown of what I’m doing…
Basic outline:
Tuesday 19 Sept 2006
Flying out of JFK -> Zürich -> Frankfurt am Main
Wednesday 20-27 Sept, 2006
Staying in the little town of St Goar along the Rhine in the Christmas Lower apartment
Wednesday 27 Sept – Sunday 1 Oct, 2006
Taking the train to Ansbach, driving to Schloss Sommersdorf, meeting Doktor Baron Manfred von Crailsheim.
Sunday 1 Oct – Thur 4 Oct 2006
Train to Prague! Staying in an apartment near the National Theater, fumbling around linguistically since my resolution to learn at least a few sentences of Czech didn’t really ever work out. Maybe Kim will make it over from Austria…
Overnight train (must remember to try to get sleeper-car reservations) to Budapest
Friday 5 Oct – Monday 9 Oct 2006
I’ve never been to Budapest, so this last-minute add-on was just so I could do a whirlwind visit. I’m really excited to go there, though, and Giovanna promised to send me a list of things to do there, since she spent a semester in Budapest on a math program.
Flying home early on Monday morning from Budapest to JFK via Zürich
