Remote, Remoter, the Remotest

Sandro Groganz Leave a comment

No, this posting is not about Remote Procedure Calls, it’s about the “island” I currently spend my vacation: Hallig Langeness. I quoted “island”, because geologically, a Hallig is not an island as it consists of sand and has been created by the sea, which would also wash it away over time, if humans had not “fixed” the coast with stones.

Right now, it’s only Zak, Georg Richter, and me who are on Mayenswarft. Derick was with us for some days, as well as Christian and Sabine. Ulf and Jan visited us for a weekend.

Today is our last day, the tide is high, the wind strong and cold (althoug Zak, as a Canadian, feels comfortable with the temperature).

Pictures are available online from Derick and Christian.

We got Internet here (3 persons sharing 56k), no light on the streets (err, “streets”), 120 inhabitants, thousands of birds, one restaurant (yammi food!), no bakery, no supermarket, no speed limits, no police.

Back on track tomorrow, crossing the Baltic Sea with a ferry, and then making our way back to civilization…

Personality and Blogging Styles

Now that I had a look at Zak’s Weblog, I was surprised by his new and very inspired way of writing. He actually started to write down his impressions in a poetic way – and suddenly his Weblog gains more of a personal note and becomes more valuable to me. So what we can see here, is a change in Zak’s blogging style, which is nicely documented in his Weblog, because we can compare previous postings to the new ones.

Oh yes, I like the way he writes now!
