Hi everyone,
I know that it is not fair that I just upload all these nice pictures from the lovely Switzerland. More importantly, the pictures from some fantastic hikes.
This post is about last Monday when my adviser Eckart came to Zurich to visit Peter and me.
He was in Sweden for a week for a conference where he attended there as a guest speaker.
Then he stopped by in Germnay to visit his mother (yes, my adviser is German :-) ).
Then, he drove to Zurich in his mother's car with his son Alex to see how things were with me and Peter.
My adviser is a big fan of outdoors activities. Specially the ones with hiking and nature. Unfortunately, right before my coming to US, I missed a very good hike with him and my labmates to Zion narrows in US. I should really do that with some friends. I have heard about it so much and also the picures looks fantastic.
Anyhow, Eckart had told us that he would like to discuss our progress and "research" on the hike! I know you are a bit jelous. See how lucky I am! :-) Discuss the research while hiking.
