The HDU group

Here's one final picture for you of the Houghton Down Under group when we flew to Tasmania for one of our four day weekends (included and paid for as part of the HDU program).

The Christmas Tree

As Christmas is approaching we are getting ready to come home. Since this is my last semester at Houghton I won't be blogging any more, however, if you have questions about the Houghton Down Under Program or Houghton in general I would love to talk to you about it. Please e-mail me at katherine.brown@houghton.edu and I promise to get back to you :) Merry Christmas!

Christmas time!

The city is absolutely beautiful for Christmas! It's hard to get into the Christmas spirit without snow since it has been in the 80's for the past few weeks, but the decorations throughout the city sure do help :)

Country Party!

One of the best aspects of Kingsley College is that the kitchen and student center are open for great parties like this one, our country party. Several students decided to celebrate country music and southern cooking by throwing a country party! We all had a blast eating fried chicken, mashed postatoes, and corn, and learning to country line dance!

Flinder's Station

Here's a picture of the train station in the center of the city. It's about a 25 minute ride from Kingsley College and a close walk to many fabulous shops and restaurants in the city.
