Sinterklaas visits Utrecht, 15 November 2008 : I happened to be in the right place at the right time to catch Sinterklaas arriving in Utrecht near the Vredenburg market. Unfortunately, I didn't happen to have my camera with me, since I didn't know it was going on. So, we must suffice with these photos from my mobile phone.

Ghent & Bruges with Darshana, March 2008 : Darshana and I took a weekend to visit the beautiful Ghent and Bruges in Belgium. Both cities are very nice, and each is worth at least a day of sightseeing. We took the train from Utrecht to Ghent on the morning of Saturday, 15 March. In the evening, we left Ghent and went to Bruges by train. We stayed overnight and left Bruges on Sunday afternoon. We both enjoyed ourselves immensely.

International Lunch at Darshana's, March 2008 : Darshana invites friends and colleagues originating from countries all over the world (we had 5 of 7 continents represented) to lunch. Each of us brings a dish and an inexpensive gift. We are mysteriously told nothing else. After all the good food was finished, we play a game in which each person rolls a dice and must do something depending on the number rolled. So, we acquired, traded, and stole gifts and, in general, had a lot of fun.

Costa Rica, November 2007, Day 3 : Elizabeth and I visited Costa Rica for two weeks. This is the third day of that trip. We took a bus from San José to La Fortuna, where we stayed in a hostel called Gringo Pete's. Not long after arriving, we caught a trip to Arenal to hike through a park, see a volcano (sadly, not shown due to rain), and relax in some hot springs.

Costa Rica, November 2007, Day 1 and Day 2 : Elizabeth and I visited Costa Rica for two weeks. This is the first two days of that trip. We flew from Austin (me) and St. Louis (Elizabeth) to Dallas/Fort Worth, then flew to Juan Santamaría. We stayed overnight with my friend Kelly, and she took us to the University for Peace and around downtown San José.

Skydive San Marcos, October 2007 : These are from a trip to go skydiving in Fentress, Texas. We went with a company called Skydive San Marcos. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of us actually diving or returning from our jumps. They make it really difficult for you to capture that moment, and I didn't want to take the camera with me. There are more pictures from Aditee.
