Last Post from England

Karena told Lexie today that I'm going home tomorrow. In the saddest of tones, Lexie replied, "I'm sorry."
I'm not! (I"m allowing myself one exclamation point per posting) I'm going to miss the Weisses, and I have truly enjoyed staying with them and seeing England, but it will be good to be home. I hear that I'm flying into a very snowy New England, so I'll know I'm home right away.

I definitely have enjoyed England. Some of the highlights were:
~Chatting with Karena
~Talking and playing Lexie
~Seeing Arthur smile
~Long walks around town
~Standing at the bottom of King's Chapel and looking up
~Trinity's courtyard and chapel
~Lunches out with Karena and Lexie
~Bumping into two people I knew (or at least had been introduced to by karena) while in town, made me
feel like a native Brit.
~Tea with John, Laura, Xanthe, Otis, and Ianthe.
~Driving on the wrong side of the road
~People watching while in town
~Walking through Clare and St. John
~Watching "24" with Charlie and Karena, listening to Charlie's excited commentary

This is getting long....I think that as the taxi is coming at six tomorrow and my bags are all packed, I will retire. Signing off from this side of the pond...
