Under Construction

Hello all,

My laptop screen fried a few weeks ago and as a result I cannot upload pictures/use my computer for anything. I hope to get the remaining pics posted sometime after I get home so keep a look out in December.

Off to Switzerland

I know it has been awhile so I will try to bring you all up to speed. Below are some random pictures from our week long trip to London. Not much to show because I made the mistake of not charging my camera before the trip. It was a pretty packed week with very little free time as almost everything on the schedule was mandatory. We saw things such as the Tower of London, the London Bridge, Tower Bridge (the iconic bridge that most people assume is the "London Bridge"), various museums, Parliament and Big Ben, and much much more. We also went to see the musical, Wicked. I never gave musicals a chance in the past but I thought Wicked was absolutely amazing. Those of us studying mass communications were also taken to Weber Shandwick, one of the world's leading public relations firms. Overall it was a great time, I only wish we had more flexibility to explore on our own and really soak up the sights and sounds on a whole new level.

Since then, not much has happened. As I write this I am in the second week of our two week break. I had nothing booked or planned for last week because I wanted to leave it open for spontaneous day trips. I spent a night in Edinburgh early last week and a night in Newcastle as well. I fly from Newcastle to London tomorrow to meet a friend who has been in Ireland for the first part of the break. From London we are flying to Switzerland where we will spend three nights in Lucerne. I am very very excited. The down time has been nice but being one of only 4 or 5 students in the castle at a time is kind of maddening. It should be a great rest of the week.

Bear with me

I realize I have not posted in quite awhile and a lot has gone on since then. I have pictures that I have yet to pull from my camera and stories to tell to bring you up to speed, all of which I hope to do very soon. Once I have the time I will get the posts rolling ASAP so stay tuned.
