We left our hotel towards Munich's airport at the same time Germany was playing an elimination match against England. The S-Ban was nearly deserted as most Germans were in front of TV sets at home or in large groups in front of big screens located all around Munich. I think the only passengers were tourists heading to the airport. When we arrived at the airport, we passed through a big food plaza in the Mall located by the airport. A huge celebration was going on in a large but separate area by a big screen: Germany had just beaten England 4 to 1.
After 10 years as faculty at UNB I am finally on Sabbatical! This blog tells a bit of my experience centered in the nice city of Delft, and in its surroundings.
