The UCONN campus - first days

Eva, me and Husky 'Jonathan', the UCONN mascot.

The football field and Gampel Pavilion.

It was very obvious we were in New England.

This is a beautiful new englandish church on campus.

This is the newly renovated "Homer Babbidge" library, with excellent service and opening hours compared to german university libraries.

The Wilbur Cross Building, the UCONN landmark.

This shows Silke, me and Bettina after our first shopping spree for food and basic room needs. The car behind us is our Mazda 323, that we were to have difficulties very soon.

This dude (a.k.a. parking enforcement officer) was a constant threat to every car owner. No discussion necessary! In fact, he ticketed me a couple of times. Here you see him ticketing a guy right infront of my dorm window.

Construction and reconstruction was taking place when we arrived. It was quite a mess at times.
