So sorry I didn't have the opportunity to write to you all last night!
I know I'm a horrible blogger, and I apologize.
But we got home terribly late last night and well, I was pooped.
So I opted to rest and then give you all something absolutely Grand!
So yesterday was a bit of a FUN day if you will.
Tara and I hopped on a bus and came to Dolgellau to visit her friend Miss. Gwenno Teifi.
It is quite lovely here in the mountains!
So we just hung out here for a bit and then we had to be on our way.
You see had tickets to a Fleet Foxes concert (don't feel bad I didn't know who they were either).
So we had to drive on over to Wolverhampton, England.
Let me tell ya....that was an adventure.
We didn't quite know how to get there so we were relying on the good ole iPhone of Gwenno, but you know those things have the worst battery life...but don't fret we made it safe and sound we just had a few moments of confusion.
So we arrived in Wolverhampton (Hannah Lane's future home) grabbed us some Pizza Hut before the show, and then it was off to enjoy an evening of "musical gloriousness" as Tara would call it.
(She's a HARDCORE fan.)
It was a good show!
They are quite talented.
I think I would have enjoyed it a little better had I 1. known who they are or any of the songs 2. been able to sit down 3. if it hadn't smelled like an after sport armpit.
But on a whole it was good fun!
Also, the opening act, The Bees, had a look-a-like of someone at Tech.
Can anyone guess who it is?
David Miller I didn't know you were British.
Okay but now please allow to explain the title of this here post.
As you know, our hostelmate Allison has left us.
So Sad.
What's even sadder is that she has been replaced in our room.
Annnnnnnd her replacement is.......
FOUR MIDDLE-AGED MEN
Yay.
Not one, not two, not even three, but FOUR.
The joys of a hostel.
NOT REALLY.
Please allow me to disclose my first impressions of our new "roommates" :
(sick just saying that makes me want to vomit)
1. Holy Mess yall smell disgusting. How does a smell like that even happen?
2. Oh hey, there are four of you, not three....perfect
3. oh wow, you are all over the age of 35....creepy
4. great....you all snore incredibly loud.
5. Annnd the cherry on top....you all sleep in your UNDERWEAR.
(and Im not talking like boxers style, Im talking European/Speedo style)
So yeah, keep us in your prayers.
We live with men.
It's highly inappropriate.
And very very uncomfortable.
Lord, help me!
wow are you being stretched! good thing you grew up with brothers--just think what a shock it would be if you hadn't!!!!!!! your photos are absolutely beautiful. GOd is revealing Himself in many unusual ways!
ReplyDeletesorry i missed you this morning--i think i got on (for real) like 5 minutes after your call!
food for thought--maybe some details of your encounters with people--I would love to hear what they think when a spunky petite girl from south Louisiana who speaks french asks them about themselves and the LORD!
what is most different about the people and the culture there? i am getting excited about leaving tomorrow, hate to leave Dad but so ready to experience God at work on this trip.
I realized that you and I will miss each other in the Houston Airport by about 4 hours on Monday July 11th. we didn't plan that too well. i love you and miss you and know that God will be faithful no matter who snores in your room!!!!!!! love you bunches and am praying James 1 for you.
