The Frankenballoncup finally took place after a couple of years of cancellation due to bad weather. And it was perfect weather… Unfortunately the wind went into a direction where the balloon I was supposed to be in could not find a large enough landing site, so I stayed on the ground. But it was fun anyway 🙂
Schloss Seehof was the summer residence of the bishops of Bamberg. It was build in the late 17th century. After being secularized in 1802 it degraded and was only restored in the second half of the 20th century.
At the end of the last US trip for work I had three days in New York, mostly seing things at night and one short morning to walk around.
The bad thing about business trips is that you mostly only see cities at night. During day you have to work, at night you have some time to stroll around.
Chicago is the place where the skyscraper was born. Together with New York modern architecture started in Chicago at the end of the 19th century.
The Field Museum of Natural History is one of the largest museums in the world. It features everything rich people could get away with stealing and killing in the late 1800s: egyptian mummies, dinosaurs, native americans and any form of dead animals.
Just returned from a short 4 day diving trip to Mallorca organized by ActionSport Mallorca in Port de Pollença.
