Winter Break

I’m now back on campus after a thoroughly relaxing winter break.  Highlights included spending time in the Sierra Nevada and San Bernardino National Forests, surfing and enjoying bonfires at the beach, and riding the new Silver Line and Gold Line Eastside Extension.

Fall Break in Boston

I spent the first half of fall break in Boston.  Other than a quick overnight earlier this fall, this was my first chance to spend time there since the summer of 2008 when I worked with ACE.  Overall, despite the ten hours it took me to travel from Swarthmore to Somerville (thumbs down for Bolt Bus, thumbs up for Megabus), it was a great trip.  I got a chance to catch up with ACE and spend time with a number of friends from high school and college.  I also had some great Indian food, made it to Kimball’s, watched the undefeated Tufts water polo team play their alumni game, and rode the Silver Line to South Station on its first day of operation.  And I hopped on an Amtrak train to head back down south before the snow started.  Pictures from my trip to Boston are below:
