Connectivity

South view from my balcony Since I moved a couple of months back, I have increasingly enjoyed the new location. The move brought me into the center of the harbor front downtown. Now every weekend either hockey or baseball games or artists (such as Foo Fighters and Kings of Leon) bring masses of fans and other spectators to the neighborhood. So there is always something happening. This can be annoying at times but it also bring great access to public transport and the PATH. The PATH is a system of underground connections between shops and food courts. Since the shops are overpriced and many of the halls are pretty overfilled with people in the winter I prefer to walk on the pedestrian walkways along the streets. However, if the weather is bad (if it rains it pours) it's a great way to stay dry.

New design

Yes, you are still on the correct page. I just felt like a new design and I didn't discard any of the old entries. However, the previous photos have gone for the moment, but I'll probably find a way to display those again... In the meantime this link will get you to some new photos I took rather recently. Today was probably the last nice day of this summer if one's allowed to call it that middle of October. The weather forecast for the next couple of days is rather gloomy and to some extend reminds me of the rainy days in Ireland. Despite the outlook, I'm rather thrilled at the moment. I recently picked up golf as an new hobby and committed with buying a very affordable set of clubs. I also hit the course a few times already so that I feel I made good use out of the weather. It's so much fun, especially now with leaves turning yellow and red. I should probably mention that golf is not seen an elite sport, or at least not worse than many other sports, over here
