June 1 - June 5, 2009, Münster

I participated in the conference "Geometry and Topology" which was held in Müenster from June 1 to June 5th, 2009. Most of the followings are pictures I took while I stayed in Münster.

In Town

There are many sculptures in town, and I enjoyed them a lot! Please visit Skulp-Tour for more pictures.

Oh .... so, you noticed that there are no pictures of Michael Weiss. Sorry, that is not intentional! I simply forgot to take a picture during his talk.
