Interesting 2nd day. 5 hours in one line. Culture of testing and learning Maths. Biking through Graz was great.

Right now I am sitting in Graz in the Dietrichskeuschn, on open youth center. I have no admin rights, but putty works ;-)
The first day of the IMST3 meeting is finished, some interesting referats about math-standards and math-tests in school. Dinner was in the UNI-Mensa, old feelings came up from the time of study in Graz.
The funeral is also finished, it was very sensitiv and familiar. I rented a bike and enjoy cycling through the town. And of course, it was raining.

Traveling in a 20 year old wagon. New station shopping mall. Much reminders on 15 years studying here.

Today at 1.30 a.m. my Grandfather died at the age of 93. The funeral will be next week on thursday in Graz. He was healthy untill the end and had no pain. Byebye grandpa!

Since today we have a new inhabitant in our house: Gipsy.

Her tail goes fast from left to right, about 30 minutes she ignored the cat, but unfortunately she mad a bad movement and cat-man pulled out his claws. Grumbling and "chchchchchchcht" and grumbling and "wuff" followed the short fight. Cat-man went out on the terrasse but came back later for taking his "Streicheleinheiten". But he found a way: behind the TV, on the top of the sofa, up the wall and directly to the stairs to get to the first floor. Lets see, what the next days will bring to both of them.

On saturday we had our last day in Jesolo. It was raining. No reason for Claudia not to swim in the Adria. The water was warm, the air was warm, so what. After 6 hours bus and 30 minutes Taxi and 10 minutes car we were at home and have now beautiful reminders of a last minute holiday.

linea 2 e 5 e la nave to venice. St. Marcus is wonderful, Salute too. Rialto, Seufzerbridge. Actv-boot. Great day

Early to the beach. Sun sun sun. Watermelon. Tretboot. Medusa while swiming. Cycling in the evening. Hot now.

6 h in the bus. Medusas and red seagrasflowers. I don't mind. Frecce Tricolore airshow at the beach. Warm sandy.

Claudia booked a surprise-trip to the Adria and we got a nice place in Jesolo; until now it looks nice in the internet, it is the Hotel Christian. Let's see, what it will give to us and how such a trip to the Adria will be for me. I decided, not to sleep, because we start at 5.30 in Mötz. Normaly I wouldn't get up at this time, so I work on the PC, make breakfast and look forward to some fine days.

This night I spent in the hospital of Zams. As I was on my way home from Gregor, something strange happened on the highway. You know the feeling short before you have a black out? Well, at 120 km/h not fine. The breath was flat as a screen and the blood-pressure high as a mountain. I drove on the sideway of the highway. The fingers rattled as a snake and it was hard to dial 144. "Im Augenblick sind alle Leitungen besetzt, bitte haben sie etwas Geduld..." unbelievable. 120. ok, they call the doctor. When the doctor came: pressure: 210:160, pulse 150. oops. I got medicin, and after 5 minutes it was ok. But I had to stay at the hospital. They took a look at my blood: everything ok. sugar, enzyms, cholesterin. Their diagnosis: Panik-attack. Thanks.

Today we made a hike through the rosenberg-schlucht in Imst. Wonderful. The sights are wonderful, it is not long to walk but very impressive. You should take the chance of walking there and back again in about 2 hours.

I have a card game for 2 Person: Spacetravellers of Catan. I have got it 2 years ago. Today was the first time we played it. And: surprise! Claudia liked it. Strange. Because "The Settlers of Catan" is not a game she enjoyes. On TV she likes Kottan, Tohuwabohu or Time Bandits. But she said, High Fidelity is a boring Film, that she never would watch. So after 1 hour we canceled watching the Film.

To tell you: I have got a right watercolour-brush. And I have a board to put the sheet on. And I have appropriate watercolours. The next thing I need is time to paint. There are so many things in my head I want to paint, so wait until you can see the paintings. I also bought the last missing cable and the screws for the amplifier WCG-1. In the next days I will try to set it up. You will read here more.

Today I made a tour with the bike with Lea. We were away for almost 2 hours. Klamm-castle - Badesee - Obermieming - Gschwent - back home. A short break at Maurer for an ice-cone. Each of us worked out about 1500 kcal. But the ice-cone relevates that. But we had a lot time for talking and joking. I should make that more often. Driving alone isn't that funny.
