Reunion

About a month ago, Sandra and I flew to the Boston area for her college reunion. Every five years, she returns to M.I.T., the place of her undergraduate studies. She has some good connections with several people from her graduating class and even a link to another from an earlier class.

The weekend offered several activities from dinners to tech talks to competitive games outdoors. After drizzling on Friday, our arrival day, the weather cleared nicely.

We also had a chance to walk to the Charles River. We saw several boats, sail and row, on the water since boating is very popular in the area. We also caught a good view of Boston.

On the final day, the class gathered for breakfast and then a group reunion photo. I took some pictures of the group and of Sandra with her friends.

After all the group pictures, we headed to chat with Ron, an alumni friend, outside the Maclaurin Buildings. It was a gorgeous to be outside, sitting on the grass in the shade and talking.

Ron even snapped a picture of Sandra and me.

It was good to be there with Sandra, experiencing moments and meeting people who have been a part of her life.
