This february, the house got a little taste of Texas.

Anil, Cecile, Nejma, Clemens, and others took a trip to San Antonio for the rodeo!

Austrian Alex and Jo also got a look around the San Antonio riverwalk. How nice!

Our german Alex went to see the local Austin ice hockey team, the Ice Bats.

Bad luck to open an umbrella indoors? Not when it's these three lovely ladies.

A big group took a trip to Houston to celebrate Sarah's birthday. Here they pose at an old german farm.

Clemens learns how to play shuffle board at the Hole in the Wall bar next to campus.

Other german housers in the background argue over the score.

Summer comes early in Texas.

Anil, Esther, Thomas (german and french), Andreas, and austrian Alex spend a nice day playing volleyball.

Thomas doing a 1 and 1/2 gainer in tuck at Barton Springs. Jakub, our resident czech tennis player smashes a serve.

Don't forget the food! Barad cooks up an south indian dish ... just like home. Esther is the master of the quesadilla. A french style dinner & good wine.

Tae-sun and Eric, the studious roomates, take a break for a little fruit punch. Sometimes the sun shines, other times it's as cold as Europe! Alvaro, Andreas, Alex, and Gina wait for the bus.

Here is a nice new habit. After a night on the town, Thomas, Gina, and Esther prepare cookies. The rest of us contribute 2 cups of moral support.

February was so cool. See you next month!
