Although apparently there is some open access around the Business School. I then made my way back towards the Vice-Chancellor&#8217;s office stopping for a cup of mint tea in one of the little snack places (the unusual shape). When I got back Kathleen was still busy so I told her I&#8217;d meet her at the bar, where I had a ginger beer and downloaded the photos from the camera. Kathleen joined me and we went for lunch at Pages Cafe on campus. I had my curry chicken and rice and peas and cherry drink (they were out of coconut milk) which was all very nice; Kathleen had the recommended honey roast chicken and Spanish rice which she enjoyed. We then wandered back to the room to cool off a bit and upload the photos and type this blog entry.<\/p>\n<p>Joe &#8211; as typed by Kathleen<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.panoramio.com\/plugin\/?lt=18.0059&amp;ln=-76.7471&amp;z=0&amp;user=511198&amp;k=1\" height=\"500\" width=\"500\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Kathleen was working I took a wander around the campus taking a few pictures which you can see below.
