Two Weeks in Greece
I'm in the middle of two weeks vacation in Greece, well almost. I did break away for a day and a half to kickoff our HPC Consortium user group meeting in Dresden yesterday. For a week before that, however, I was traveling through small towns, visiting just a few of Greece's many historic sites, and getting totally into the Southern European lifestyle of late evening dinners with plenty of exceptionally good local wine, lots of fresh fish, and Greek salads. We ate at one terrible taverna (unfortunately on my birthday) and many great ones. I'll try to post some of my favorites next month, but for now I'm still on vacation and limiting myself to one 6 Euro, two hour WiFi access card per day and syncing 1075 messages took up most of today! Tomorrow at 11 am CET, however, the Top500 list gets announced and I'll be back to say a few things then. Now back to the beach, where my biggest decision will be if I should have a Mythos beer or a glass of the wonderful local wine :).
