Clouds

Again partial airport closures in Europe- Switzerland, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Russia and

Austria´s airports will be closed in one hour. That hasn´t happened before in the European aviation history.

Why I´m writing about all these closures? Well, I have been interested in aviation and geophysics since my youth. After my school leaving examination in physics I wanted to study geophysics. But you have be aware that math plays the main part in this field of study and math wasn´t my favourite subject.

But my interest in these subjects is unbroken and for the first time aviation and geophysics are combined in a unexpected way.( And BTW some friends of mine travel a lot and they keep me updated)

Besides the volcanic ash clouds that cover my mind, I have to find a topic for my own studies, write a reflexion and finish my last draft. Too many clouds around, hope the sun will come

soon;-)

I have to decide whether to write the final piece in one tense or split it - and use 2 different tenses. I´m not sure if I´m bold enough to use 2 tenses. (Have never used 2 before)

But that´s not all about courage- about reasonableness as well.

Back to writing now! Nice weekend!

Transportation

My job demands driving a car.
Today I got my car back- from the garage. Finally!
It´s horrible to garage a large sedan (my rental-car) if you don´t have a big parking-lot.
But now it´s over; and honestly this wasn´t a big problem.
I´m focused on another traffic theme.

A friend´s job demands flying to Scandinavia every week.
I´m not sure when he can fly back home from Arlanda- Stockholm.
Due to Iceland´s volcano ash many European countries have closed their airports and airspaces.
Besides Sweden also Belgium, Ireland, Britain, Norway, Netherlands, Finnland, France and Germany have closed some or all airports.
Hope, he´ll come home safe soon.

Nature can´t be controlled. That´s for sure.
