Punting in Tuebingen


Florian had his birthday last week, and he invited a bunch of MPI-ers out to the river on a punting expedition on the Necker. Our boat contained one Australian, three Indians, one Chinese, one Turk, and two Germans. We also had a dozen bottles of beer and no beer opener. Fortunately, it's possible to open bottles with a belt - thank you Dilan, for showing us this wonderful technique! - so that humans and ducks could enjoy a swig. Many swigs in most cases.



Here's a good shot - Florian silhouetted against the sky. Well, maybe it's too bright.



After somehow managing to have no-one fall into the Neckar (which is only a few meters deep here - good news for those of us whose definition of swimming involves sinking to the bottom and running), we headed off to a traditional German meal i.e. doner kebab, and then to a drink more beer in the market square.
