My Cambridge Blog: The First Post

I'm sure most of you reading this are thinking, "Wait... he's not in Cambridge yet, is he?" And you'd be right, but I thought I'd let you all know that I'll be doing this. I'll try to post anytime something interesting happens, which figures to be rather often, since I'll be in a different country and all. I'm going to try to post pictures on here as well, so it's a bit more interesting than plain text.

The Basics
  • I'll be arriving at Heathrow Airport in London around 6:30AM local time on Friday July 4th. I'll catch the bus from there to Cambridge at 9:30, to arrive at Cambridge hopefully around noon.
  • This is a William and Mary faculty-led study abroad program, so I'll be taking classes with William and Mary professors in classrooms and living in a dorm at Christ's College.
  • Each person in the program is enrolled in two classes, mine are "Cambridge Writers" at 8am and "Time in Science and Science Fiction" at 10am. Classes meet Monday through Thursday.
  • There are several day and weekend trips planned to various locales around England, including London, of course, as well as Stonehenge, Stratford-upon-Avon, etc. I will naturally write about those trips as they come.
  • I return stateside on August 8th.
