# 310 Teknik – Technique (160/365)

På klassens studieresa besökte vi bland annat Lessebo finpappersbruk. Här gör man pappret för hand enligt gammal teknik och det färdiga pappret används bland annat till examensbevis på Uppsala universitet.

On our study trip to Öland we also visited Lessebo, where they still make paper by hand in the old technique.This fine paper is for example used at Uppsala University.

#168 Lime (157/365)

Den här färgen, precis som alla andra färger, byter namn efter vad som är ”inne” eller moderiktigt. Så – Lime.

This colour, just like any other colour, changes name with what’s in fashion for the moment. So – Lime.

Warsaw – A Miracle of Old and New – Stroll III

Time for a final stroll in Warsaw – a city of surprises. Much glass, interesting architecture. i fell in love with the University Library and its gardens. And also the pride of the city – The Copernikus Centre on the river Wisla.

The library, finished 1999, was invitingly modern and I knew it was to have a gigantic glassed garden terrace overviewing the river and surroundings.

The impressive entrance – a dream in green and lilac.

Indoors, much air and glass – again. We tried several assistants and guards to get to the glassed gardens on the roof…but…no, we were not allowed there. They didn’t open until…the next day!

Instead we went out in the lower garden to see them from the outside. Art work everywhere and interesting architectural ideas.

The glassed gardens are on the right and left side here, and the closed gates are on either side of the solar cells.

The huge middle ”half moon” would have been great to see from the inside as well – maybe a couple of weeks later with a green canopy.

Further down the road, on the banks of the river Wisla, is situated the pride of Warsaw, The Copernicus Center, ”Heaven of Copernicus”. In Copenhagen we have a centre built on comparatively the same ideas: Experiments and journeys in time and space; but we stayed on the outside this time.

Back in the city centre again. Of course I have to finish with Zlote Tarasy – ”The Golden Terraces”, in rain. For me, this shopping centre is a symbol of the new Warsaw.

# 191 Medhjälpare – Assistant (156/365)

När du står på ”bryggan” som student för att utbilda dig till kapten, har du en medhjälpare också när du tränar i simulatorn.

When you study to be captain of a ship, you have an assistant on the ”bridge”.

# 252 Sjöfart – Navigation (155/365)

Ett besök på sjöfartsutbildningarna i Kalmar lärde oss en hel del – här finns många möjligheter.

A visit to the university of Kalmar taught us a great deal about navigation.
