A meeting in Utrecht - Climbing the Dom!
After Milan, my mom stayed for a few more days in Zürich with me (to celebrate my birthday!) and then we went to the Netherlands together as I had a meeting there: the seismology group from Zürich (of which I am a part) was meeting with the seismology group in Utrecht (of which I never was officially a part, but I know everyone there anyway :) ).
The meeting was really fun! I got to see a lot of my Utrecht friends again and I got to know everyone from both seismology groups much, much better, which I really, really liked. The 'getting-to-know-each-other' things were facilitated by fun group outings that didn't have anything to do with research. The first thing we did was climbing the Dom Tower in Utrecht. I had never done this when I was still living there, so I was very excited! And it was really lots of fun :)
On top of the Dom!
Other things we did included having lunch (pannenkoekenhuis!), dinner (3-course meal!), and lunch again (2 courses, oh my!).
