Computer Issues

If you´ve been following along here you are probably pretty disappointed at my lack of posting since I got to Portugal. The first few days were crazy here so I had little time to post. Since then I have taken tons of pictures and video. I am writing to you from a computer lab at Universidade do Minho in Braga, Portugal where I just got out of a lecture where the class was observing Professor Machado and a guest speaker give a presentation on doing business in Portugal. I have not posted since Saturday night because my laptop is dead. My laptop requires more power than the US/European electricity current converter that I bought before leaving Baltimore will allow so the fuse on it blew out. I will be getting another converter as soon as possible, which looks like it could be tonight. I am really sorry that about the logistical issues that I´m experiencing over here force me to break a promise to all of the followers and donors. I promise that when I am back up and running that I will post often. This week it has been hard for me to find time to post even if my laptop wasn´t dead. The second week of my trip, which to some may be the more interesting portion to follow, I will be able to post several times a day as I´ll be on my own schedule. I´ll also see if I can´t convince Koce, Munk and J. Whoadie to get some guest posts on here too.

Wish me luck finding a converter - not only do I my laptop to post my blogs here but I also have a paper that was due Tuesday evening that I have not had access to to send it. Hopefully my professor will understand. ´Til next time, folks.
