Whoops!!! Forgot to post last week and this week is half way over! yikes!
Hrm. What has happened?

Well I went over to the Island of Jersey, which is between England and France. LOVELY!!! I met up with a friend from school (Cambridge buddy Jane) and we toured the island and went on hikes and went to a BBQ and overall just had a great time. Nice to be in the heat as well, and be by the proper ocean with proper waves! oh! Lovely!

Last week was another typical week - working and being social. On Thursday night I managed to fulfill a life-long dream - I saw a ballet at the Royal Opera House at Covent Garden!! OH!!! I was just giddy with excitement. I bought myself a glass of wine and explored all over. The theatre is lovely and even though I was up in the nose bleeds (expensive nose bleeds at that) I still had a great view.

This past weekend I was up in Bradford (near Leeds/Manchester) for my cousin's Hen Day. What is a Hen Day you ask? Well it's our version of a Bridal Shower combined with a Bachelorette party... except focused on the kitchen. Or at least Charlene's was - it was a Kitchen Tea - all the gifts were for the kitchen/ kitchen themed. It was actually loads of fun! We went to a pub in the evening for some drinks, but it wasn't a wild night. On the Sunday I spent time with family (went to their church) and had lunch at Trafford Center, a major shopping mall for the north. Crazy.

This week is my last week at Park Lane - I move over to the City next week to do more corporate work. To top off my star sitings at the Dorchester, yesterday I saw the cast of the new A-Team flick - lots of fun!! No huge plans this week - meeting up with some friends on Thursday night, possible intern drinks tonight.
This weekend, however, will be fun. Kathryn and I are off to Dublin!! WOOT!! We are going to do all sorts of irish things - Guiness Factory, Trinity Chapel, Cathedrals, Temple Bar area... I'm very excited about it!
I'll try update properly next week! Hope everyone is well! I'm really enjoying my time over here this year - footloose and fancy free! :)
