this week has gone by really fast. we were really busy and we are all getting more used to living here. a few highlights from the week were:
1. dover & canterbury. on wednesday we drove to dover to see the white cliffs and to see the castle there. of course the day we go the castle is closed, so we only saw the cliffs and then left! but they were still really pretty and it was fun to see! then we went to canterbury and saw the cathedral there and then went shopping and i found my new favorite store. paperchase. in love.

2. "oh my gosh, oh my gosh you guys!!!" (song that's stuck in our head from legally blonde that we have been singing all week) me, carly, liz, and paige went and saw legally blonde on thursday night. we didn't go there till right before it started to get tickets because we wanted to get the cheap price-- we ended up getting tickets that weren't that expensive, but we were pretty much at the very top, haha but it was still SO fun!
3. on friday we went to the american military cemetery and memorial and then to cambridge. cambridge was the funnest town and i loved it! steph-- i kept wishing the whole time that you could be there to show me where you lived and show me around! but it was such a fun day. we got lunch at a yummy cafe, went to one of their colleges there, and we went punting! it was freezing and we ended up getting the punter who all the guides were complaining about being so slow. haha he was so slow- getting passed left and right by other punters & boats, and he would just randomly stop and just talk to us about his life haha. it was so funny and i'm way glad that we did it!

4. saturday we went to get a tour of the houses of parliament. the tour was long, but really interesting! they showed us where all the meetings happen, and how once a year the queen comes and where she sits and goes. it was cool!
5. i'm 20 today! since my bday was sunday, me and some friends went out saturday night to celebrate. kins, liz, carly, paige, ashley, elise, and kaylee were nice enough to take me shopping and then to dinner at gourmet burger kitchen. it was way good and lots of fun! after we got gelato and i got the hazelnut kind, which basically tasted like a bueno bar in ice cream form. so so yummy! this morning i woke up to an email from my mom saying that she booked her flight to come visit me the first week of march! i can't wait!!! even though i knew she was coming, it made it that much better to get the final update that she booked her flight on my birthday! overall, i had a great birthday!!
xoxo
