Bridget's Photo Blog

The blog this year has focused on a lot the technical aspects of the project.  But there’s a lot more going on here than what happens in the classroom. So before Bridget leaves in a few days, I wanted her to share the flavour of Burundi with pictures that probably won’t fit the rest of the blog. She’s saving her best stuff for a photo exhibit when we return, but in the meantime, we know some people are curious about daily life details. So enjoy!
