Saturday August 4

Today we went to A Coruña (in Galician) or La Caruña (in Castillian Spanish).

First we visited the MUNCYT, the National Techology Museum of Spain. It’s a weird museum containing a random collection of science and technology artifacts in some oddly designed exhibits across 9 levels. I have a few photos in today’s set. The building itself was interesting using a system of translucent panels on the exterior and interior of the building with air trapped between as insulation.

After lunch we had about 40 minutes to tour the local “Castelo” — the fort on the bay of Coruna used to look for and defend against Viking invaders (and others, I assume).

Back to the dorms early, a nap and several hours of blogging and I’m ready for bed. Tomorrow we go on a tour of the CGAC (which is where all the lectures have been) and some studio work. I’ll try to post something tomorrow night, otherwise, I’m not sure when I’ll have a chance again.

Thursday is our final crit. Friday we head to Porto, Portugal. I fly from Porto to Barcelona Saturday and the from Barcelona to Amsterdam and back home on Sunday. It’s going to be a busy week!
