Day 149, 29 May 2017: Another day, another campus...

Day 149: ...but I do like Mondays, for now

Monday. A day for class preparation, research writing, grant submissions, reading, publications...and taking your whiteboard for a walk...as I looked out the window today. Quite possible a colleague taking some equipment over to one of the other buildings but something that stood out today. 

Good steering

Across the port


In the late afternoon, it was off to another university for another public seminar, just like last week. It seems I can go for ages without there being public seminars to attend and then they come in a rush. At least it provides some different scenery, this time in and around Yotsuya.

The seminar was about 19th and early 20th century Japanese migration and coffee production. Interesting given it has some crossover with my work on 19th century Japanese migration to Australia. It did mean missing out on the gym today, but there is always tomorrow.
