Australia is still very much a go. We've already begun
preparations. We're still VERY MUCH excited about it!
We continue to feel confirmed about this huge decision.
Hope all is well.
At our good friend Keith's birthday dinner.
Aaaawwwww... such good friends =)
Our back garden after a freak snow storm! They say 'garden'
here instead of 'yard.' The back garden looks quite different now.
Besides not being covered in snow, Mark's parents helped me
tidy things up. I'll post an 'after' photo soon...
Mountain biking around Lady Bower Reservoir in the Peak
District. It's about 1 1/2 hours away, next to Sheffield.
The mountain bikers =)
Cambridge. While Mark's parents were visiting England, we
met up with them in Cambridge to visit the relatives. Above
is the river we went 'punting' on. Mark was our punter and
he impressively did not fall in, as many other punters did!
(The stick gets stuck in the mud while the boat keeps going...)
Cambridge. Kings College in the background.
Enjoy the photos for now. Mark and I have been SOOO busy.
We're still very much excited about Australia and we're
doing a lot to prepare for it. Hope all is well with you!
My good ol' buddy Danny Franz from Sierra Vista, living
in Cambridge... the day after his pirate party! They have
a sweet house, right across the river from Jesus Lawn.
Whitby. This photo doesn't do it justice. It's a very
picturesque costal town. We took the 'rents here for some
authentic fish 'n chips. They call those places "chippies."
Whitby Abbey-- one of my favourites! It's ghastly.
The beautiful Robin Hood's Bay. The houses you see are
the start a cute (and very steep) little village.
Mark and his canadian friend Kristen making silly faces.
She went to Trinity College with Mark, and now lives in
Salt Lake City, Utah. She's lovely! We had a great time,
and I discovered my latest favourite restaurant: Vanilla
Black. It's a vegetarian (i.e. fresh food) restaurant in York.
