Week 11 and Week 10 mix up

I posted about week 11 earlier, and I got it mixed up with Week 10. So week 11 was actually week 10.
Week 11 is the week we watched the Helvetica movie.
It was an interesting movie, and after finishing the movie we went around to find everything that had helvetica typeface on it, and took photos with it.
