It's sunny!

Greetings everyone!

Though this might sound a bit cruel to all of you who suffer from long days and weeks of cold and unpleasand weather back in Germany, here in North Carolina it's the exact opposite. The 15 degrees difference in latitude between Jena (50° 56') and Chapel Hill (35° 54′ 22″) really makes a difference!
Most of the times it's sunny, and temperatures around day time are well above 20°C (or rather 70°F). So everyone is encouraged to go outside during free time to catch some tan and enjoy the warmth of the sunbeams. Flowers and trees are blossoming all over the place to the great displeasure of allergy sufferer who are having a hard time striving against the huge masses of pollen that float around these days. They cover almost everything, from the shoes and clothes you wear to cars and buildings and kind of look like an omnipresent dirty light green coating.

These Some pictures taken just recently. The first one is taken on campus showing a building near Mitchell Hall. The second one is part of South Rd. (my way to work), and last but not least my apartment.

That's it for now, stay tuned for more to come.
