Busy Week

With my job taking me all over the United Kingdom, Linda and I have grown accustomed to very busy weeks. However, this week is one for the record books.

I travel to Edinburgh, Scotland on Monday, Manchester, England on Tuesday and Berkeley, California on Wednesday — where I will attend an Haas alumni retreat through Saturday.

While I am gone, Linda will be packing our personal belongings in our old flat and moving us to a new flat in Hampstead. Here is the crazy, day-by-day schedule:
