[London at sunset, July 7, 2011]



I miss it.

But I feel slightly closer to England this week because I have a handful of friends going!

Today my dear friend Lois will be landing to start her quarter long study porgram in London. I'm so excited for her! She's going to get to see great theatre performances, amazing literary and historical sites, and a few of the filming locations for our favorite British TV Shows

[Remember Lois -
Speedy's: 187 North Gower Street

Bart's: West Smithfield =]

I'm not sure if I'm more jealous that Lois gets to be in London or that London gets Lois. I'm going to miss her a lot. But I'm grateful we've made the most out of our time together--from giggling in Shakespeare class, sharing Sherlock videos, going to see Macbeth, and our fabulous British period-drama double-header, I have become so grateful for my anglophile, lit-nerd friend!

If you are interested, you can follow her adventures here: Lois in London.

I'm also excited for friends Kim and Andrew White to return to their native England on a way to a missions trip. On their way home, they also have a little getaway with Andrew's parents and four brothers. So happy for them!

Best wishes to all who are travelling to the beautiful land of Albion this week!!!
