Things are slowly wrapping up in schools, the office, and around town as everyone is gearing up for the Christmas Holiday. For those who may not know, I am spending the holiday in Spain with Megan Mundt, one of my wonderful friends from Gustavus. We will be touring the southern coast for an entire week, spending Christmas in Granada. I'm super excited to say the least! :)
My diary for the past few weeks has been full of things to do, for which I am very thankful. Mondays I have been helping with a local Youth Club, which finished tonight. Erin and I joined our supervisor, Luisa, at Zumba last Tuesday to "be more American" and let loose. Wednesday I joined my host, Ann, to watch the boys in their school's Christmas Play, which was quite adorable to say the least. Thursday was Samantha's 14th Birthday (Samantha's father is one of Act 4's Trustees), so we celebrated with her and then went to her performance of Oliver, which was actually quite impressive. This past weekend, to finish up a great week, Erin, Emily, Bekah, and I went into London to check out the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park. Although we didn't get to see Santa, as he was on his tea break, we did enjoy some Bavarian bratwursts and English biscuits along the way!Last but not least, on Sunday, Erin and I made our way to Christ Church Little Heath for service and lunch with the Vicar and a few others. I wish I could say I've taken pictures of the church building, but I just don't want to be a tourist so close to home. I have no shame snapping pictures in London, but not here in Hertfordshire. :) Life is becoming pretty normal and I continue to look forward to all the wonderful events that are yet to come! Happy Holidays!
