Today was kinda an up and down in the group. We started the day with the Bauhaus which was very interesting. I could see the prevalence that it played in graphic design history. Again I wish I had a little more back round and had taken graphic design history previously to visiting these sights but I think it will definitely add to the class once I take it. The group was a little grumpy during the tour due to the fact that I think we were all very run down and at the end of our ropes but the fun workshop where we got to design and build our our teacups and teapots I think was a nice break. I really enjoyed the workshop and thought it was a fun way to put the principals of the Bauhaus into practice. We then went to chocolate store that features a lot of Bauhaus architecture where everyone really pepped up as we bought our weight in chocolate. The closing remarks with Fran made me really appreciate this trip and think back on all the good times I had that I will remember for the rest of my life. I am so happy I went on this trip and it helped me learn about design and other cultures that I wouldn't have been able to in the states.
