KC
I'm off to California after a brief stay in Kansas City where I saw a cool museum, saw a great movie, and had some BBQ that was truly amazing. Thanks to my aunt and uncle for hosting me!
Done with exams
The fall term is done!
I'm a quarter of the way through this thing. Does that mean I'm a sophomore now?
Thanksgiving
I'm back from Thanksgiving in Paris. A couple close friends can count as family too.
...playing a game on a cold Saturday in a park
Done with the photos
That's it for the photo-a-day. There were many more obviously. Dublin clearly had much more to see than just signs on walls. London included the requisite photos in a bright red phone booth, in front of Big Ben, Tower Bridge, etc. Sierra Leone was bigger than photos can show.
But that'll do for now.
Photo: More street art
Some more street art from Dublin. "I'd rather trust a dealer on a badly lit street corner than a criminal in a three piece suit." Nice and anti-capitalist.
Photo: Dublin
The last stop on my trip home was Dublin. I really loved the city and the countryside that I got to see. This was on an unassuming wall in a quiet part of the city.
Photo: Art
Some Warhol art from the Tate Modern in London. The space (in an old factory right on the Thames) is as cool as everyone says.
Photo: Stadium apartements
I saw friends Kim and Rob in London. They live in an apartment at the old Arsenal soccer stadium. The apartments are literally built into the old stands. So cool. The slope of the old stands can be seen in the picture. There's red trim because that's the team's color. The new (amazing) stadium is down the street.
Photo: Railway memorial
Two livestock railway cars and a stone monument at the train station in Compiegne, France commemorating 50,000 Jews who were deported from the town and sent to concentration camps outside the country. The cars are just beside the platforms where commuters wait for the trains to Paris each morning.
Photo: A French town hall
I had a couple days in France with friends Danielle and Michel. Here's the hotel de ville of Pierrefonds, too quaint not to get a photo. We checked out the beautiful fairytale-like castle the town is known for. Apparently Michael Jackson wanted to buy it at some point (the castle).
