Munich: mostly enjoyable. Paris: wonderful. Even though it rained, the celebrations didn't get stopped any. I did read reports of vandalism occurring during the festivities. At least they didn't start until after we went to the Louvre. Of course, I rather like the Louvre and was able to view a few items being restored. I learned a few things which I sent on to the restoration department of the firm. Brought back a few things I found in a back alley bookstore to work on.
Unfortunately, we weren't able to get to Vienna or Copenhagen over this break. Perhaps the next one. This summer, I'd like to try climbing Rishiri-dake or Asahi-dake in Hokkaido. However, I'll have to wait to finalize any plans until I know what the summer work load will be like.
My grades were superb, especially in history and the various languages I am taking. Though, my Spanish isn't quite as good as my French. I will probably work in Spanish for a little bit to enhance my understanding.
I was able to get caught up on Hetalia and finished Miracle Train on the flight back to Japan. I knew Shinjuku was right about the conductor. Though, now I'll need a new show to start watching when I have spare time.
