First, I went to Copenhagen to visit a friend from undergrad. Her family moved to Copenhagen a year or so ago, and she was in town visiting for the summer. I hopped a quick flight up, connecting in Amsterdam, and spent the weekend with her. We did the touristy stuff that Copenhagen has to offer -- although the mermaid was in Shanghai and we did not make it to Legoland. Below the post are a few highlights for the curious. We watched a couple World Cup games together, and just generally caught up -- a great weekend with an old friend.
This past weekend, a few friends of mine from work (who are actually my bosses) took a weekend trip to Majorca. The island is apparently a hot-spot for British hooligans, so after lounging on the beach during the day, we did our best to fit in with our new hooligan friends at night. It was a great trip, highlighted by a bet between the three of us not to talk one word of work which to everyone's surprise and benefit no one lost. Sorry, no pictures from Majorca -- I didn't bring my camera out once (although the scenery was beautiful and the weather even better).
As I said before, work has been keeping me quite busy. I have my first contested trial in a couple weeks, and the pace of Soldiers in the area finding themselves in trouble has not slowed. For those who are interested, I can talk a bit more about cases on the phone, but it's best if I leave out any discussion on these internet posts.
Upcoming, I have a few trips planned -- actually 4 weddings upcoming -- one at Notre Dame in August, one in Santorini, Greece at the end of August, one in Chicago end of September, and one in Ohio beginning of October -- lucky for me one of those stateside trips is paid for by the Army as I'm coming back to CVille for a conference in the middle of September.
Sorry for the quick post (and the long time since the last one). Love you all.
