Even though there is a night train from Paris to Vienna, I never managed to take it with my family at a reasonable prize for holidays... even when trying to buy tickets as early as possible. During my studies, it was much cheaper than the plane and always possible to get tickets... find the error!

Still hard to believe but Béla Novák died suddenly on Saturday. We've lost a fantastic colleague, mentor & great friend to many. There was really no-one else like him. Working with him was so much fun & I owe him a lot. All my thoughts are with his family.
