Student Books



The students final project was to create a book that captured their London experience. This past week all our photos were uploaded to the server so that we could all have access to the best images possible. A conservative estimate would be that there are now over 10,000 pictures available. I will be uploaded more book covers in the days to come.

Aug 4



Two of our group returned today from their prolonged stay in England where they had a brief visit to the coast and then Paris. The students books are coming along nicely and class ends tomorrow, though the friendships and memories will last forever.

Aug 2 and 3



Tuesday and Wednesday were work days, with the students furiously sorting pictures, reminiscing about our trip and laying out their books. The professors were there to offer guidance and help.

July_31 and Aug_1



We had to leave the hotel at 7am on the shuttle to Heathrow. When we arrived we found our 10:35 flight had been delayed till 12:35 or later. We shopped and waited around the airport and did some last minute shopping. Then after the almost 11 hour flight we arrived in LAX, to get our shuttle and finally make it home.
Monday we all came back together and the students began working in earnest on their book. This will be the routine for the rest of the week.

Hello again.
We are mostly back and Monday we went back to work. However, that is not what this post is about. On Saturday 4 of us rented bikes and rode across London to Melrose and Morgon for some breakfast stopping at Primrose Hill to look at the view of London one last time. Then we rode the canals and headed to the Transportation Museum, had a delicious lunch, then to the National Portrait Gallery back to the Nido to rest, over to the Ten Bells pub (where Jack the Ripper was supposed to imbibe) and finally a delicious Italian dinner.
