Day 100: A New Beginning

Hmmmm... It seems fitting that my last post in the "100 Days of LJ" experiment is the first post that I write as an expatriate.

[livejournal.com profile] cheshcat and I arrived safely in London about twelve hours ago. We were met at Heathrow by [livejournal.com profile] nw1. We then proceeded to spend the day with him. First, he gave us the scenic route tour from the airport back to his house. We drove by many cool arches, parks, the British Library, etc. Along the way, we also stopped in Regent's Park for a bit. After we got back to his house and received the grand tour of his new home, I caught an hour-long nap ([livejournal.com profile] cheshcat was too wired to sleep!) before we headed out for the evening.

This evening, we went out and picked up some of [livejournal.com profile] nw1's friends, then headed to a pub where [livejournal.com profile] nw1 had a gig tonight, which doubled as an audition in a talent-scouting competition. He friends are cool and the music was good, so we all had a fun time.

Now we are back at the house and exhausted, or at least [livejournal.com profile] cheshcat and I are, from the traveling. [livejournal.com profile] nw1 is fixing dinner as I write this, and then we are off to bed. Tomorrow, [livejournal.com profile] cheshcat and I will head out to Oxford and begin searching for a place to live.

After we leave London, I do not know when we will have internet access once more. So it may be some time before I am able to post again...

Thanks muchly... and if you're ever thinking of crossing the pond, do let us know. You now have a place to crash in Oxford. (Actually, you don't yet, as we are still hunting for a flat to let... but by the time you got here, you would! *grin*) Otherwise, I will see you at P**T*** in October as usual, yes?

You will of course see us in October...(especially because now that I will be done with my MA I will actually get to ENJOY my vacations, rather than writing papers through them.)

Dude...will totally let you know, even if we didn't have a place to crash. Couldn't cross the pond without visiting you folks! :-) good luck finding a flat...btw, I love that you have already picked up the lingo.
