Last weekend provided a very good opportunity to properly relax as the May Day bank holiday prolonged the weekend from Friday to Sunday. Instead of joining into the Maiaufmarsch on the town hall-square in Vienna we spent the time with finishing off the preparations in our baby-room and with relaxing on Friday.
Saturday was the official golf season opener for Markus with an early morning round together with Peter in Spillern which turned out to be more joyful and far less frustrating than expected. After little Sophie’s birthday party in Kritzendorf in the afternoon we drove to Oberwart as Markus had another round of golf arranged with Klaus early Sunday morning in Bad Tatzmannsdorf - again the round was pretty decent - followed by lunch with Michaela, Klaus and Nikolaus and a rather frustrating Game 4 of the ABL Semifinal between the Oberwart Gunners and WBC Kraftwerk Wels which the Gunners lost after 2 overtimes and giving away a 3 point lead 10 seconds before the end of regulation. As a result the decisive Game 5 will take place on Wednesday in Wels.

The fun factor was back Monday afternoon Markus boarded the last Austrian flight to London for a two day business trip on which he also met up for dinner with some former colleagues – Sarah, Berti and Florian – as well as Helen and Fritz on Tuesday night. Not having met for 4 years provides a lot of topics for small talk even though it felt like we have been working together all the time. It was just like in the old days – lots of fun and laughter, lots of booze and only a few hours of sleep.
Kerstin & Markus
