I should probably be writing about time management since the blog has been seriously suffering from a lack of it lately. So, what's been going on at Sister Cities? Well, we just bid farewell to 4 musicians from our Sister City Leeds, England who were in Louisville to take part in the University International Jazz Festival this past Wednesday, if you couldn't make it then you'll have to take my word for it that it was an excellent concert. The musicians played alongside the great musical talent we have here at the University as well as some guests from Russia - a truly International concert! The Frazier International History Museum also held a reception for the musicians and gave them a tour of all the great exhibits - by the way they are re-doing the 3rd floor exhibit so watch out for the grand opening later this year! The Kentucky Country Day School delegation arrived home safely from our Sister City Tamale, Ghana after having a great visit - they were even able to set up a Skype chat with the students back at Louisville during the trip. They are currently writing a article for us about their trip so come back and check that out soon.
Lastly 2 upcoming events - If you watched the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics and wondered how they pulled off all the special effects wonder no longer - just come to the free showing of a behind the scenes documentary this Wednesday:
