David's Work (and Dinosaur Sidenote)

While we're here in Spain, David is teaching a course called "Sustainability of Built Systems" at Saint Louis University, which is English speaking.  The class is a seminar discussion about society and sustainability (energy, food, water, transportation).

We're here with about twenty students from Lafayette College, where David is a faculty member.  Most of the students are taking Dave's class as well as others.

Here's are pictures of the university:



Here's David's building:

Nice, huh? 

Dave's got three office mates who are all very helpful.  One of them, Francisco, helped us get a pool pass for the boys at a gym near our apartment (which would have been impossible on our own with limited Spanish).

And as a sidenote, we took the boys to the Natural History Museum (because Owen loves dinosaurs).  Here, he's pretending to be a dinosaur.



The boys liked this neat exhibit (paper cards turn into dinosaurs on screen):

  1. Beautiful buildings at the university! Is that tile work in the entrance to Dave's building?
    Owen makes a great and scary dinosaur...although Sam looks less than impressed. Again thanks for the virtual trip to the museum!
