Wismar

I'm visiting Wismar this week for my department's Summer school (not for people who failed their classes). Everyone presents on their work over the previous year and it's a good opportunity to meet people (for me, especially) and to learn what they do.

Wismar is a smallish harbor town in northern Germany along the Baltic Sea. Last night I saw a beautiful sunset over the harbor as well as an oddly named street.





No false cognates there. It translates to almost precisely what you think it does.
