a few things have happened...

Pues. Lo siento. So much has happened lately that I don't even know how to begin to describe it all. but for starters the bulbous flowers have started blooming. Everywhere you look there are Daffodils to be seen, it is SO beautiful. These Daffodils are from Hampton Court. The Royal Residence of Henry VIII. It is a very interesting specimen of Tudor History. Quite lovely.
Windsor was also lovely. The Queen was going to come that weekend, so everywhere things were being prepared for her arrival. The moat of Windsor has never had water in it. But it makes a beautiful garden. We finally got our hot water fixed after nearly two weeks of cold showers. And let me tell you, the water in England is like ice that they had to melt to put through the pipes. NOT KIDDING!!! you literally were freezing. you went numb almost instantly and before you had a chance to even get some of the shampoo out of your hair your head was SO cold that your brain hurt, it was awful. Luckily the professors had hot water and let us shower there some. Well I suppose that this catches us up some. Perhaps I'll tell you more later...
