End days

The lights on Carnaby Street

Our time in England was much too short. During the two days we were able to get out of our hotel room and enjoy the town, Mum and I joined Lucy and her parents, Cat, and sometimes Whitney (who stayed with us in our hotel, yay!) in London to do fun things. On Saturday we met Lucy and fam for lunch in Belsize Park, then did a little shopping before staying in for fish and chiips for supper and playing dreidle games for the “last night“ of Channukah. They were soooo much fun. On Sunday we had a late start, but went out to a “slow food” festival and after supper, went to Carnaby Street to see the cool Christmas lights and have some hot cocoa. Then, unfortunately, it was already time to pack and depart early the next morning. After a very full day of flights (430am in London to 730pm in Indiana… so that’s more like 130am in London, nearly a full 24 hours of flying) we made it back to a wonderful reunion with Ben, Kim, Drew, and Emma at the Louisville airport. Happy (and terrified) to be back home, and my journey across the globe is officially finished… for now.
