Campus y paseo en el lago. Campus and walk along the lake

Como os dije el otro dia, habia un monton de cosas que queriamos hacer aqui en Chicago y Evanston. Durante el puente no hemos podido ir a ningun sitio lejos porque Thomas trabajaba el sabado, pero aun asi, teniamos cosas sencillas que hacer por aqui.
Hacia tiempo que queria ir por el Campus y hacer fotos de los edificios, arboles, ardillas, etc que hay. El Campus de aqui es precioso, los edificios son relativamente antiguos y el lago esta a menos de cinco minutos. Asi que ayer cogimos nuestras camaras y nos dimos un buen paseo por el campus en busca de rincones bonitos. No nos dio tiempo a ver todo lo que queriamos en detalle, pero vimos algunas partes por donde normalmente no pasamos en nuestro camino hacia el laboratorio.
As I told you the other day there were still many things to do in Chicago and Evanston. We haven't gone anywhere further during Thanksgiving holiday because Thomas had to work on Saturday, but still we wanted to do some simple things here.
We wanted to go for a walk in Evanston Campus and take pictures of the buildings, trees, squirrels, etc. The Campus here is beautiful, it is relatively old and the lake is very close, less than 5 minutes walking. We took our cameras and we went for a long walk looking for nice places to see. We didn't have time to see everything we wanted to, but we could visit some parts that we normally don't see on our usual way to the lab.


Poco a poco nos fuimos acercando al lago Michigan para ver todas las rocas pintadas que hay al border del lago y todo a lo largo de el. Se puede encontrar de todo, rocas firmadas, de alguna asociacion de estudiantes, rocas amorosas, declaraciones de amor y de casamiento, etc. Me parecio muy original, hay un paseo a lo largo del lago lleno de estas rocas pintadas :) Aqui teneis algunas fotos.
We approached lake Michigan and we could see all the painted rocks that are along the lake. We could find everything there, rocks painted by student's associations, rocks with love poems, with marriage proposals, etc. I thought it was very original and some of theme were very artistic. Here you can see some pictures.





Esta es mi roca favorita, me parecio muy graciosa :) El novio de Jenny la llama su "dinosaurio favorito" que romantico! jaja!
This was my favorite rock, I think it is very funny :) Jenny's bfriend is calling here "his favorite dinosaur" so romantic,haha!!

Antes de volver a la Universidad, terminamos nuestro paseo en el campo de los "Wild cats". El equipo de futbol americano de Northwestern. La temporada ya ha terminado, pero ir a uno de los partidos tambien esta en nuestros planes :)
Despues de trabajar unas horas, yo fui al gimansio y despues salimos a cenar a un sitio muy chulo que os contare en el post dedicado a restaurantes en Evanston. Besos!!
Before going back to University we ended up our walk in the "Wild cats" field. The Wild cats is the football team of Northwester and even though the season finished already it is also in our plans going to one of their games :)
After working a couple of hours, I went to the gym and then out for dinner to a nice place. I'll tell you about it in the post dedicated to restaurants in Evanston. Hope you liked it!!
