Last week in London

This is my last week in London and I have a couple fun things planned…so hopefully it will go by fast.

My co-workers got me a ticket to see Billy Eliot tomorrow as a going away present, since I wasn’t able to see it a couple weeks ago. Di got a ticket too, so I don’t have to go alone. They constantly amaze me with their generosity. The whole team, especially Dawn and Di have done so much for me during my stay here. They have really made me feel like a part of the team and I am going to miss them all so much. When I first decided to come over here I was worried about how they would feel about me coming from the US. They have truly been wonderful and I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to work with. I know that I will keep in touch with several of them outside of work.

On Sunday my friend Sangeeta and I are going to go to Hampton Court and then to Oxford. We went out to dinner together last night and she was asking me if there was anything that I wanted to do when I came over that I wasn’t able to do. I told her I had made a list when I first got here and I had done most of what was on the list. She asked what was on your list that you didn’t do…I said Hampton Court and Oxford…so she said, well Sunday we are going to go out and see it then. It will be fun…just hoping the weather isn’t too bad. We have been hit really hard this week. But I am not complaining…I rather have it happen this week and get it over with, so that I don’t have to worry about my flight next week!

I just have 2 more days at work. Wednesday I am taking the day off to check out of my flat and return the keys. Then I am going to a hotel for the night. Then Thursday is the DAY!!! I will be on a plane back home…FOR GOOD!!!

See you soon!
