So Cindy is gone now, much too soon — but hopefully we’ll manage to meet up again soon. Here some pics taken in the last few days, for you to enjoy:<\/p>\n


\nCindy in my room — my fouton couch turns in to a (very comfortable, I’ve been told) bed.<\/p>\n

As always when I have visitors, it makes me appreciate the beauty of Basel so much more — it’s almost like seeing it for the first time, and it makes me realize again how much I love living here.<\/p>\n


\nThe town hall, build from the red sandstone that is found in a lot of old buildings here.<\/p>\n


\nThe “Mittlere Brücke” (Middle Bridge), connecting Grossbasel and Kleinbasel (Bigger and Lesser Basel). Sitting at the Rhine is one of my favorite pastimes in summer.<\/p>\n


\nBasel has a very picturesque old town, like this cute stair up from the market square towards university.<\/p>\n


\nA funny sign — the owner of this plant is on vacation and asks passer-bys to “please water the flower from time to time”…<\/p>\n


\nThe building of the Economics department of the university — isn’t that figure balancing up there cool? That’s probably what you end up wanting to do if you study Economics… *g*<\/p>\n


\nThis last picture was not taken in Basel but in the Zurich zoo, where we went for my brother’s 21st birthday yesterday. They have a brand-new rainforest building, which is gorgeous!<\/p>\n

I apologize if the pics mess up the page layout — I will change it one of these days, but that’s a lot of work and will take time, since I’m such a html amateur… But they’re pretty anyway, aren’t they? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
