We're home (for the next 3 months)
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Surrey » Guildford
Hi all, A quick update to let you know we arrived safetly here in Guildford on Sunday morning. We have a nice wee flat in Guildford. It's pretty small - but that's to be expected over here. The kitchen is hidden behind fold-away doors in the lounge - so it's pretty tiny. The place has a spare bedroom with a double/queen bed - so it anyone wants to come and visit you are most welcome to come! Except we can't have more then 2 visitors otherwise you'll have to sit on the ground as we only have one couch and one [View Full Entry]

Winkworth Arboretum
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Surrey » Godalming
Well, eventually after much deliberation we went to Winkworth Arboretum on Bank Holiday Monday and it was lovely. It's about 3 miles out from Godalming Town Centre and is really easy to find as it's signposted (brown signposts). We took a picnic and bought a guidebook for £1.50. It is a fascinating place with a wonderful history and even though it's said to be at its most impressive in Spring and Autumn, we found it great fun to wander around the lake, and take a rest in the boat house, and explore the Wetlands along the bridge made out of [View Full Entry]

Final Faculty Party
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Surrey » Egham
Yesterday was technically the end of the summer. I did an airport run and spent FOUR HOURS with a french kid who can contort his body into strange positions ... so called the "elastic boy." Yes, that was super fun. I then returned and prepared for the final faculty party of the summer. It's always a bit bittersweet, as everyone moves on and back to their lives. The people here may touch me for one summer or more, but in some way they always manage to add something to the program and my life. It's hard not to wonder who I [View Full Entry]

The Riverboat That Almost Wasn't ...
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Surrey » Egham
Last night was the big banquet and riverboat for the 6 week students. I planned the coach assignments, got my Friday evening trips off and went to get all dressed up for the night. As I am about to get into the shower I start thinking about the coaches and realized that if I didn't order the coaches who the hell did??? It hit me out of nowhere, 2 hours before departure, that I was lacking two 50 seater coaches to drive to the Festival Pier in London. Panic set in ... I called our contact and basically cried, plead, and [View Full Entry]

As that famous purple dinosaur Barney once sang "we're going on an adventure, fun for you and me, we're going on an adventure, just you wait and see", it certainly really feels like we are embarking on an adventure now we have finally made it out of the house. The last 2 weeks have had many unbelievable obstacles put in our way, so much so we really thought we would be delayed. First, Gav's nose job, then the day before we were due to fly Joe looked like he had chicken pox - spots all over his face and rash on [View Full Entry]

As the end of the first session is drawing near, we are doing a lot of activities for the kids as a farewell. Although I have always participated, this year I am actually in charge of them. Oh, first I forgot to order the wood for the bonfire (that was a problem), then I though I lost a box of TShirts for signing (and they were next to my desk). They don't really make marshmallows in England so we got these nasty Marshy Friends things (S'mores are just not right with Marshy Friends). The fire was started too quickly and the [View Full Entry]

I'm Actually not in Surrey.. but oh well.. haha.. So my trip is nearly at it's end.. I have to say, for the first time.. I am actually quite happy to be going home, and missing some of the creature comforts.. Not to say I haven't loved traveling... but I think it might be time to get back to reality and start working again *sigh*.. I'm in London, in a random internet cafe, awaiting the arrival of one of my friends and I can't help thinking.. 2 days and I will be sleeping in my own bed, and be able to [View Full Entry]
