Virginia

And so we went off to Virginia. Changed plane in New York into of all things a Dash 8!! Like the ones that goes from Mo i Rana to Trondheim or Bodø that we always took when I was a child. I really didn't expect that kind of plane in New York! But it was really cozy and me and Stella made friends with the pilots.

I think the name of the guy with sunglasses was John

A Dash 8 at LaGuardia airport New York!

Arriving ar Roanoke airport, Virginia kind of explanied the size of the plane. Christer and Stella had never seen an airport that small I think. It was larger than Mo i Rana airport though :)

From Roanoke we took the bus to Blaksburg, which is a town consisting of only one thing, Virginia Tech university, and nothing else... You have more shops selling Virginia Tech clothes (and absolutly everything else with Virginia Tech) than normal clothes...

Virginia Tech is as some might remember the university where there was a massacre a couple of years ago. Horrible. Actually, a couple of hours after we arrived again a girl was killed... Kind of scary...

The point with visiting Virginia Tech was to visit Diana, a really cool professor who told us a lot about atomistic modeling.

Everyone exept Christer (since I stole this pic from Christer, creative rights or something no?)

The Hookie of Virginia Tech made of lego!
