Outside London

You all get a special treat this week. I'm posting the blog one day early! The reason being that early (3 am) Sunday morning I'm leaving to go to Bristol for the week. I'm piggybacking on EMU-Lancaster's cross cultural to the UK. I'm picking up another participant at the airport tomorrow morning and then we are taking the bus down. The topic of this cross cultural meshes nicely with my research topics and I am excited to participate.

Speaking of research, I received the rough draft of my first paper back on Thursday and spent Friday revising it. It needs another 10 hours or

so or work and then I'll be ready to hand it in. So close...

Today, I went with a friend, Tristian, on a day trip to Oxford. We took the train up and spent the afternoon on a walking tour of the city and university. I was amazed at how intermingled they were. We had wonderful weather and the tour was fun and informational.

Please pray for my time in Bristol this week as well as for continued guidance for my plans and job situation when I return home. Blessings!
