Out and About

Yesterday was a very good day adventure wise.  One of my coworkers and I got to take a field trip to another site that is about 80km from where we are currently working for a meeting.

There was lots of farmland (as well as "eau de cow" courtesy of the fertilizer being used) being prepped.  One thing that that stood out were these:



The first one is a bit blurry but I thought that the telephone pole was good for scaling purposes.  We were both a bit confused for a minute but then R determine that they are for growing hops!

We got to the area a bit early and while he grabbed some lunch, I walked around Manching and took some pictures.  It is a cute little town:



I also got to enjoy a few flybys from a Eurofighter:



After getting back to Augsburg, I enjoyed another awesome German sunset:


I joined the guys when they headed downtown for dinner.  However, instead of having dinner with them, I wandered around and took pictures.  :)



The town square had some very cool cobblestone patterns:



St. Ulrich's and St. Afra's Abbey:




Augsburger Rathaus:


And some fun with time lapse:
