Last Friday of the Trip

Today is the last Friday of our trip. I am very sad to think that this time next week I will be at home!

BUT . . . this has been the most amazing trip! Here is a quick rundown of what my 2 weeks in England has consisted of:

Wednesday: Boarded the airplane in Kansas City to Chicago . . Then from Chicago heading towards Dublin.

Thursday: We arrived in Dublin, Ireland and took another plane to London, England. Then took a train from London to Derby England where our host families picked up each one of us. Got settled into our house for the next 2 weeks.

Friday: Walked into the town of Belper and explored and shopped and I had my first ever proper "Fish & Chips"! (They were delicious!)

Saturday: Got up and went to Peak camp in Chatsworth.

Sunday - Friday: Camp - - There will be more stories about camp at a later time

Saturday: We packed up our gear and headed back to the host families

Sunday - Friday: We toured all around England! Saw a Football game, got to play Cricket, played golf on a hill side, saw Nottingham and Sherwood Forest, ate at a Pub that was build into a cave and dated back to 1186 I believe!

Today is our last day in Belper, tomorrow we are heading up to Edinburgh, Scotland! I have heard so many things about Scotland, I am very excited to see it!!!

When I get to a computer that I can update pictures to I will have more details!!!

Miss everyone back home . . . . but I am definatelly not ready to come back home!!! I have said MANY times since I have arrived that I am going to loose my passport and stay in England for several more days, weeks or months!!!!
