Saturday, we had dinner with the Claborns. While the conversation about whether the Red Sox winning consistently and paying players at a rate only exceeded by the Yankees starts to cause them to lose their appeal and a debate about the performance (read the multiple meanings of performance here) of running mates in the debate were fun to engage in, I was drawn to watching the four little bodies flopping, gyrating, sprinting, hugging and just enjoying each other's company as the big folks sat around the dining room table.
Sunday, Heather and I had the chance to share some reflections on our trip to Portugal this summer. Feel free to check out our blog of the experience. Unfortunately, Heather and I seem to get so busy being professors and students and parents and and and and that we haven't had much of a chance to sit together and reflect on the experience. We both shared with our class and with each other the challenge of pouring out all of what you have without knowing the end result of what you've done or even seeing the progress that is being made. We both are confident, however, that our students whether currently attending EUNC in Switzerland or back at home in Paris, Barcelona, or Madrid will have the chance to influence the lives of many that we will never meet because of the very small role we played in living and learning together over the summer. I wrote about our experiences at http://50daysinportugal.blogspot.com. Feel free to check it out.
