Best Day :)

So yesterday was one of the best days I have had here. I went on a walk with my friend Lucy,Bastiaan,and Chelsea.  This walk was only supposed to be a quick walk to the reservoir for some cool pictures... but no. The walked lasted 7 hours!!! Mainly because we got lost I would say about 3 times and each time we were a mile of course, not the best but I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to be with! SOme stories throughout the day were ... we crashed a wedding...accidentally and I am being told to say that it wasn't a 'we" thing it was a 'me' thing. (not my fault I'm loud when i go near a church :) ) We told stories in a forest ( which I'm pretty sure was private) , we screamed/sang grease songs while walking down the highway!, we got poured on, we went into a pub only to be told supper wasn't being served until 630 and it was 415, the one place we found to eat at wasn't open.  So we found a playground and played there for a while which was a bunch of fun :) , we went into a store so i could get chocolate ( majorly craving this) and had some funny encounters while in there. I have noticed when in public I don't like speaking without a British accent, sooo my few words that actually sound good , i use frequently :) , We got yelled at by the guys in a car for walking in the street ( party poopers) ,we walked through TONS of crop circles!! kinda fun but kinda weird. we took the different paths and then walked around them ( this was all when we were lost). We finally found our way back after we ate. But it was now 10 pm! such a long day. We got home and then proceeded to put pictures on Facebook which took forever and a day since the internet is horribly slow. and then went to bed.
       Today, all i did today,no joke, was get up, shower, watch movies w/ becca , eat lunch , and check emails. woo sooo productive. i loved it. and later tonight i am getting my eyebrows threaded by Dina who is a worship intern from Egypt. I don't have to pay london prices can't wait ( i think). and then tomorrow I am taking a train to london to see my friend Rhian at her flat and spend a couple days with her and then enjoy holmstead for a while more.  Well that is all for now. orrr ta ta for now!
ps. the picture attached was a tombstone near the church, i though it was magnificent. so i thought i would share it with you :)

  1. sounds like a fun walk...although maybe you should steer clear of weddings in the future, most of the time those are private events. glad to see you had an awesome day
