More Newcastle fun

Tonight I, Kirsten and Sebastian went bar-hopping... This is how Tyne looks at night. Famous sights to behold :)

The Millenium bridge not only opens and closes but its lighting changes color as well.


Here are a couple more pictures from South Shields and Tynemouth.

Looks like we were looking for some shells here. I can`t quite remember. Ah yeah, we had a competition which I won. I was the first to find a shell, even though it was broken ;)


Tynemouth Abbey (monastery and castle ruins) in the background!

We had a lab gathering on Wednesday (bad idea), but surprisingly most people looked quite healthy next day. I myself wasn`t able to sleep too well on that night, remember having some nightmares. No more beer for me! :) Unfortunately, on the next day I had SO MUCH WORK....


Some of my colleagues here at the NICR.


There are some of the first pictures I had taken during the first weekend after my arrival to Newcastle. That`s river Tyne.

The famous Millenium bridge that opens and closes every day to let ships pass.



I got myself a bike on the second day which, I think, was my best investment here so far. I learn a lot about the city by getting lost all the time.
