Typhoon Soulik
July 12, 2013
Martin

This weekend we got hit by the first typhoon of the 2013 season. Unfortunately the timing was once again such that the typhoon vacation fell on a Saturday.

Below are a few photos I took this morning after the worst had passed.


You'd think the security guards would have enough job dedication (or at least common sense) to walk around the building before the typhoon and move loose things to safety, but apparently that's too much to ask for $1400/month/apartment.And that's why the whole swimming pool is littered with paper, buckets, and chairs.The people who (re)stabilized the trees after the last typhoon apparently didn't learn much, so the the trees in front of our house got uprooted again.If scooters routinely get blown over by the wind then parking your bike outside is a long shot.(untitled)(untitled)(untitled)(untitled)This hairdresser's shop sign came down completely.I'd feel sorry for the owner of this new scooter, but you can estimate his IQ from the fact that he removed the rearview mirrors.

Verkehrshaus Luzern

Martin

The Verkehrshaus (Museum of Transport) in Lucerne is one of my favorite museums in Switzerland. It's so big that you can only get through about half the exhibition halls in a day. And it's constantly updated with new exhibits from the Swiss world of transport.


The Lake Lucerne near Vitznau.(untitled)The drill head of the tunnel boring machine used to drill the Gotthard tunnel. The piece is 9.43 meters high and 225 tons heavy.The fancy projector at the The collection of small planes.The original [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Retrievable_Carrier EURECA] satellite that spent over 11 months in space circling the earth.Space toilet.The missing Wright sister.A giant miniature train system modeled after the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotthard_railway#Northern_ramp.2C_Erstfeld_-_G.C3.B6schenen Northern ramp of the Gotthard railway] including a number of underground spirals.As always with labeling things that predate my own existence I'll go out on a limb here and declare this a steam locomotive.
