Hello, from England! So my journey was a little long and tiresome. Definitely had some kankles going on for a while. Easy layover in JFK, then landed at London Heathrow at about 6 am our time here. Got through customs very fast (which I guess is a miracle because they've been turning people down, who already have approved visas!). Then I lugged my 70lb suitcase and 20lb backpack aaaaaallllll the way down to the train station, to get on the blue line. Buying my ticket was very confusing, but I got it worked out. I looked absolutely ridiculous with all my stuff. There were 2 guys on my first train who I swear got in a fight just last night. The one guy had 4 stitches in his brow, and what looked like his finger almost torn off, but securely wrapped in bandages now. Needless to say, I stayed very quite. Transferring trains was a cinch. There was a nice gentleman who carried my huge bag up 2 flights of stairs for me. Then we crossed the street to the pink line, and got on another train, for only 5 stops this time. When I got off, I had to push my suitcase down 4 flights of stairs. As I waited on the street, I wondered if anyone remembered they were supposed to come get me. It was quite early still, maybe 745ish? So I plucked up and used the pay phone. Luckily I got ahold of someone, and one of my staff, Chris from Puerto Rico, came in about 15 minutes. We drove for maybe 5 minutes back to our house. It is so quaint! Chris and I sat in the kitchen and chatted about DTs experiences, while we waited for the girls to wake up so I could go get settled. Our cat, Coco, is insane by the way. The girls are really great! They showed me all my shelves and stuff. It took me a while to get unpacked, but now I'm all cozied in my bed ready to crash hardcore.
It is so weird to be at a different location, again. Knowing I will be here for another three months still hasn't hit yet. Being a part of another team feels even more weird. But it'll become one big family, just like before. Well, that's all for now. Bed time!!! Love you all.
