The Opening Dinner
I haven't been able to catch a few minutes on the blog for a few days because I'm still waiting for a wired connection in my flat. Today is the last class day for the week; tomorrow is my excursion to the National Maritime Museum.
We've had a relatively smooth opening, with just a few glitches. The major ones have been lost luggage, and some issues with the small kitchenettes at the main college site. Because we have some students there who didn't want meal plans and had been switched from Chad's, there's some inconvenience with the closed-off rooms. But our common room is taking up the slack.
For now, just some pictures of our opening banquet. Everyone dressed up, and the food was very good. The weather also cooperated, for a nice reception in the main quadrangle.
