The night before

Well, this is it. Almost. Everything has been packed (or is ready to be so first thing in the morning), and my train is now only 11½ hours away. I sure hope the snow won't cause any trouble! The only two things missing is a power plug for NZ outlets, the one sold to me in Århus turned out to be wrong, and a pipe which will be used as a pointing device - everybody knows that you must be right if you are pointing with a pipe!

It has been quite strange saying goodbye to family and friends during the last two weeks. I still don't think I realize what it will be like to move around the Earth, but on the other hand the distance today seems smaller and smaller with e-mail, Facebook, Skype and all the other clever programs. Luckily, the saying goodbye has been a lot of fun and good times instead of people crying for hours - just the way I want to leave everybody, with a big smile. I trust that you will all take care of Denmark while I travel the world to find a cure for cancer (or at least earn a MSc in Medical Physics).
