After a short wrap up and goodbye session we had the rest of the day to ourselves so I set out for the Philadelphia Museum of Art and got to see "The Thinker" along the way. At the museum I said hi to Rocky and ran up his famous stairs - twice. Couldn't find anyone to film me though so you'll have to make […]

So today we did the obligatory tourist thing and visited Disney World - being a Saturday it was BUSY, it was HOT, and with average waiting times for most rides at over an hour most of us decided to come home early rather than wait for the 9pm fireworks...

To read part 13 click here. Today we visited a local affiliate of a regional TV network who the less I say about the visit probably the better, except to say that when I tried to speak to the 'sports lady' about Sepp Kuss looking likely to win the Vuelta she had no idea what I was talking about!

We got to visit NPR Orlando affiliate station WMFE 90.7 today and, while we still didn't get to see any actual studios did have a very fruitful discussion and beneficial question and answer session.

We travelled down the river all the while listening to of the most knowledgeable, funny, and magnetic tour guides I've come across in ages. He could tell you about the rocks, the trees, the animals we did, and did not, see, and […]
To read part 8 click here. A long day of travelling after a long day of meetings yesterday. Up at 3 to make it to the airport and through TSA in time - hampered somewhat by two of our number suddenly being on a 'no fly' list due to their country of origin! Anyway, we made it to Denver, where I found a much needed coffee with it a […]
To read part 7 click here. Today included a rather underwhelming tour of Voice of America in which we got to meet none of the journalists working there, were not allowed into any of the actual news rooms, and had to look at unoccupied 'display' studios which we were not allowed to take any photos of... About the only interesting thing about the visit was finding out that, if the […]
