Summer must have been really fun and relaxing… a couples of decades ago…for parents…
given that a lot of us have birthday in April and May!

So, four girls who were born between April the 20th and May the 7th, started more than a month in advance to plan the most amazing Munich party ever (!). A barbecue along the river. Interesting idea, uh? `

Unfortunately the weather turns to be crap as soon as they planned the event, nevertheless they kept organizing, inviting people (final list of invited friends: 80! We thought to call the police the day before, just to let them know we were not having a rave party!), cooking and praying all the possible scientific and not gods for having  nice day.

It is not easy to converge on a common idea of fun, but finally we managed to set the date, and succeeded! We have to admit, not  all the thanks go to us, but we played well.
And we had the only almost-sunny-with-a-lot-of-clouds (but-who-cares-given-the-weather-in-the-last-week) day in weeks, a LOT of nice friends coming  along, frisbee, cards, food…

At the end it was an all-day barbecue, almost a celebration of the new season (for which we are actually still looking). Some of us were a bit confused, maybe (like Francesco who brought the Texas hat I stole ), but sausages and beer always make us feeling at home… And now, nothing to do than wait for a real summer, to have more and more barbecues and fun.

A long night is going to start… Is my turn for observing at Arecibo. Right, I’ll put my headphones on, sit quietly but impatient and listen..

Oh, sorry, that was the wrong movie! My work is not so romantic, maybe… Still pretty fun, though. In the meanwhile,  while a weekend has half gone (but that week was interesting and not still done; gonna tell you more…) I just tell you about I visit I received few days ago.
A friend arrived from far far away to see me. He was actually the first Italian friend to come and visit my new place in Munich, so.. Congratulation! He won another trip here
This time I am not going to tell you what we did and how much fun we had.. I’ll let (his) pictures speak.

Hint: maybe you really want to  sit and let the pictures tell you a story…
