I hope you are all having an amazing Christmas Eve! And I hope you don't see this for awhile which would mean you're having a great time with family and friends! Here's my family- taken earlier today in Oxford.
We've been really busy the last few days- ok, I know I've said that before - but we're really keeping busy!!! Just got back from a one night trip up to Coventry so I could show my family where I've been living. On the way up we stopped in Stratford-upon-Avon, and on the way how we stopped in Oxford. Lots of touristy things to see! And the night we were in Coventry we were invited to my host counselor's home for dinner. It was the best food we've had in a long time- it was amazing to have a home cooked meal after so many days of restaurants and take out!!! :-) And the company was just as good as the food. :-) It was great for me to be able to introduce my family to the people I've been telling them about!
At this point you should ask me how we got to Coventry.... and the answer would be: I DROVE!!! :-) We rented a car, and I successfully drove nearly 200 miles up to Coventry and back. No accidents, no driving in the "wrong" lane... and only two very minor missteps (wrong exit on roundabouts most often due to the four of us all counting which one we should go to and, amazingly enough, all of us coming up with a different idea of where to go. Thankfully, I had already been on those two roads, so I was able to just go through the roundabout again and find the right exit... :-) haha. Oh, and I must add, I am the Queen of the Coventry Ring Road. Hahahahahaha. I mastered it. hehe.
Anyway, back to the family... Have a great Christmas, everyone!!!
