I had my plan for the day, to get some postcards and then maybe go out somewhere or failing that sit in the pool with a crate of beer. Just as I was leaving Kathleen ran across the lawn and told me they needed more photos as the photographer wasn’t around yet. So I ran up, grabbed my bag, and spent the day taking more pictures. As I was downloading the second day’s worth of pictures we were told that the bus tour around the campus was waiting for us. So we ran down and hopped onto that and I got a few more pictures of more parts of the campus. After that we retired to the bar for a few drinks and something to eat before the evening’s entertainment. We decided to try the Juicy Patties again, this time I had a meat stuffed loaf followed by grapenut ice cream. I have no idea what a grapenut is but it tasted good.<\/p>\n
We then went to the 50th anniversary University Singers’ Concert which was brilliant; moving its way through religious and gospel music to folk and popular at the end. It was a retrospective across the 50 years of performances. Back to the room for a beer and a quick blog update and bed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
