Yes - to be us! How wonderful.....we have wonderful family and wonderful friends, and of course, each other. This week is all about being American. Yes - we at Burger King for the first time since leaving the States......no, it was not that good. We are better off without the King! In addition, we got a package from home: Juicy Fruit, Maple Syrup, Ramen Noodles, and Crazy Mix Up Salt!!! Juicy Fruit never tasted so good, but still doesn't last any longer than I remember. And Ramen Noodles taste good any time of day! This week I think Ramen lunches are in order.
In addition, we played tourist on more than one occasion. We went to see Avenue Q and Ghost Stories in the West End theatres. Avenue Q was completely amazing (we got our own box seats) and we would highly recommend it to anyone (at least people who don't easily offend). Ghost Stories, while not what we expected, was clever - we jumped a few times and they did a great job making the play scary; however, we would not want to see it again. If others are interested we recommend buying the cheap tickets; it is the same no matter where you sit!
On Saturday we went to Hampton Court Palace; it was beautiful and (obviously) historic. The grounds are amazing and the inside is like a huge maze; no wonder King Henry VIII could cheat on all his wives, they wouldn't have a clue where he was!!!
Then, on Sunday we went to the Nottinghill Carnival. It was awesome! Really. There were a ton of DJs (driving and located all around), great food, and a TON of people!!! I'm sure Ja'Nae will write more on this as her attention to detail is greater than mine :)
Anyway - for our last post; our mind changes daily. So, you never know (and neither do we) when we will come back to the states! We miss you all though!
