What happens in ROSS VEGAS!

Over a week ago I got back from an amazing two week trip to England. The main reason was to visit my friend Jenny and other friends I met through her and her wedding!!! I did way more than my body was up for.


February 9 & 10: I spent all day on a plane and hanging around the hostel for my first visitee Bridget to show up in London.  We were going to spend the weekend together! And I could not have been more anxious.  So it started off wasy and hanging around the corner till I could be let into the hostel (hotel in American terms) when I was approached by a man who started discussing God and his love life and path towards faith with me! Very memorable talk.  Then after finding WiFi I notified friends and family of my safety.  After that the rest of my day was made up of watching 27 Dresses, painting my nails, and sleeping cause of the time change.  After waking up at 8:30 (needing to be at the airport at 9 to meet Bridget) I rushed to the Tube "MIND THE GAP" only to have just missed her.  So I hopped back onto the Tube, fortunately I was lucky enough to catch the very last subway out.  And I embraced Bridget for a good five minutes and cried with excitement of seeing her.  The rest of the night we caught up about nearly everything, whilst the neighbours banged on the walls for us to hush down. Great first day.


February 11 &12: Bridget knew London more than I so we took the next two days to site see the major cities, we used the oh so conveinent Tube to get around everywhere.  We visited Covent Gardens, Trufalga Square, Piccadilly, Kensington Gardens (where an amazing Peter Pan statue was built),etc.  Sunday night, one of Bridget's friend's Sam (super cute and amazing accent) met with us and we have an amazing time hanging out.  It wasn't a great idea, but deifinetly fun, when we decided to play king's cup and Drink! an hour before my train left to Jenny. So little be said I was put on a train completely smashed.  And I was a tad paranoid that someone would steal my bag. 

February 13 & 14: I spent the days with Jenny touring around Ross-on-Wye.  We went down and feed the birds with some moldy bread and I helped Jenny with her weekly shopping.  It is so peaceful and beautiful.  I helped Jenny get gorgeous for her valentine's day date with her husband, Rob, by painting her nails.  Then Ben, Rob's best friend, came and took me away for a few days to go hooning.  But it will not be the last that I see Jenny. 

February 15-17: So after being picked up from Ross we met with Chris, one of Ben's friends, and we went out to the pub with him and his house mates for valentine's day drinks.  The following day Chris, Ben and I met with some friends and had a good meal at a chain pub known as Weatherspoon's.  Each pub has a different name but are all under the Weatherspoon's chain, we went to Gate Keeper in Cardiff, Wales.  It's where Chris goes to school.  That night we did an English thing and enjoyed an ice hockey game at the local rink. We voted for the Cardiff Devils and we won! The following days were filled with hooning, think Fast and Furious on open roads in Wales.  A great few days. But unfortunately my body was starting to fail on me.  The past few months I have been in a state of weakness, I forget stuff, feel weak, question everything, painless, etc. So I was hoping it passed quickly so that I could enjoy the rest of my trip.

That was my amazing first week! The second week is coming! But I hope you are so far enjoying it!
