A weekend in town, finally! ( I know life is so rough going from Croatia to the Northern Coast of England !) But, no worries we have weekend plans which starts off tomorrow at Burr's PwC Beer Pong Tournament - oh joy, kegs full of English Beer - YIKES!

Our week was good and busy! We had dinner with Hansel Shook, Burr's UvA friend who just moved here, then last night Burr hung out with Greg who was in town from Amsterdam. OK enough normal talk....

The weirdest thing I saw this week was a motorized skateboard - yes just like in Back to the Future! How cool was that?! This guy just flew down the street on the thing, amazing. I attended a hot yoga class that is so annoying...its just not the same as Charlotte yoga and its make me miss Charlotte. I want to yell at the teacher "That's not how they do it in Charlotte!" when they tell me to do things a different way, I don't want to do them a different way - I want to do them my way. so there! ( I realize I sound like I'm about 5)

Oh, I totally forgot to blog about the amazing seafood in Croatia. 2 different nights Burr and I ordered the "mixed grill" which consisted of a huge fish (tail and head included), mussels, clams, crab, tuna, etc. etc. - it was the biggest plate of fish ever - and all of it was caught that day talk about amazing. The pic we posted is of the shrimp we ate at this tiny island called Robinson. The restaurant is well known but you have to take a water taxi to get there, and there is no electricity or running water. People eat there and hang out on the beach (some without any clothing - ick!) but the place was fantastic - like heaven on earth. We were a little seafood-ed out to say the least by the time we got back from 9 days of it. Tonight is the first night we've been able to eat it.

Sadly by tan has disappeared, its like my body knows I'm in London and I MUST be pale!

I have begun to hunt for new flats. I decided ours is ridiculously loud and my ears are starting to hurt from wearing ear plugs everynight. We love the neighborhood, but now we know why we got in for such a steal:-) At least we are renting!

Keep in touch with us, oh our Skype camera works now so if you want to skype me to see our beautiful smiling faces, give us a buzz (or a bell as they say here) !
Go Jayhawks! Go Hoos!
Love
Anne
