IM HEEEREEE!!!
Landed this morning at about 5:30 am nj/mass time (home time) in Heathrow to see my lovely aunts shining face! She immediately gave me hob nobs and english chocolates ---> this is exactly why she is my favorite.
From there we went to my Nana's house in Market Deeping at which point I began my race to eat/do as many british things as possible in my first full day of being a British Citizen. First we went out for fish and chips. Where i tried mushy peas....its exactly what it sounds like. Then we went back to her house for tea and buiscuits. Followed by driving back to my aunts to watch my little cousin Euan play cricket.
I've also been driving on the other side of the road! Very British! however its really freaking me out every time we turn left I have a mental break down because there is a car coming at us head on....
But for now I am off to be my newly british self (HA!) more updates to come as my adventures continue!!
I realize its the middle of the day for most of the people reading this but I need sleep! haha
goonight

What a great start Lea, glad all went OK with your journey. Just one thing though..... to complete your initiation into the English way of life you need to add to your culinary experience with a good old traditional 'British' Curry and also a visit to your local kebab shop (preferably after a skin full when the pubs have closed) :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm not trying to lead you astray, honest!
Hope you're enjoying yourself and get over the jet lag soon.
