Walking through Boston last night. This is Boston Common (I think).
This can be found on the statue of John Harvard which falsely declares him as the founder.
This is a topsy turvy building which Nick tells me is rather impractical. Part of MIT.
The only thing in the MIT campus that made me feel good about where I go to uni. An advert for the exchange.
This seems to be the main entrance to MIT. It has other bits of it that look like this (which are bigger / more grand) but this is actually where students go in.
This is Boston and the Charles river. As pictured from MIT.
The only view of the ground I got when I went to the toilet. Aisle seat the rest of the time.
Woke quite late and went to meet Lizzie after her lecture. Went round to by house for lunch and to pack. Ended up going for the big bag and taking a fair amount of stuff. Just after 4 I took a train to Cambridge. When I got there I went to Spoons for a “Curry Club” with everyone who was still around in Emma. Quite a few people. Good to see everyone. Afterwards went to Andy’s room for banter. Stayed up too late. Coach at 4.50 for flying at 10.45. Tomorrow.
Photo of the Day now takes a break until 29th March. Photos will be published for the days between now and then but not until 29th March at the earliest.
Woke up in Sheffield feeling not too tired despite the overnight coach trip. Worked on some stuff for Andy while Lizzie was at her driving lesson. Then went for a walk down to Hillsborough through the Rivelin Valley. Very warm day. Bought some pizza for tea and then watched Dan In Real Life. Followed by a host of TV shows including Horne and Corden which had improved since episode 1 but was still a bit odd. Fell asleep around midnight. Back to Cambridge tomorrow.
