Family Visit, So Far So Good!
It's been a pretty busy few days. And much more walking than my family is used too. I've been having a blast. When Mark's mom and grandmother visited last year, we had only been here ourselves for just a few months, we took them out, showed them some sights. But everything was still so new to us as well.
Now that we've been here in England over15 months, there I am marching my folks and brother around like I were a native. I've taken great joy in showing them around our surrounding village area and our village life. Navigating London neighborhoods, sites and the underground with little to no help from my "London A to Zed." It's just been such a strange and wonderful feeling, having even such a large city feel so comfortable. Feeling like home. Even taking them around Windsor I was at ease, having only been there twice before. Or going so far over into Greenwich where we took silly photos straddling the Prime Meridian wasn't a big deal without a map.
Tomorrow we venture into new territory. We head west to the Cheddar Gorge and Caves and on to Bath. It will be a long driving day, but we'll get to see some new countryside scenery. That's after I treat my family to my awesome Eggs Benedict for breakfast :)
Well, I'm completely knackered, after I a have a couple of more details sorted for tomorrow I am hitting the sheets.
