Ah ha!

My navigation skills never fail to impress me. Yesterday, I caught a mid morning bus to Norwich (the smokin capital of Norfolk). Not only did I figure out which bus it was and get off at the right stop, but I also managed to find my way around town WITHOUT a map! Score one point for me.

I bought a pair of shoes (which I think are lovely) - even though I really don't need any more shoes.

Norwich is actually a really nice place. LOTS of places for shopping. I wasn't feeling very well, but I still managed around just fine. I was brilliant a second time and found my way home - isn't that great?

Today, armed with the little bit of knowledge I have of town, I decided to trek off to the catholic church. I knew the order went Pool, Police station, Library, KFC, Church. I made a wrong turn at the pool (BECAUSE it's on a corner - seriously, how was I to know which way to go?), and ended up in the little shopping area. I ended up making another couple of turns and found myself at the library. I continued onward and was jumping up and down when I finally ended up outside the church - with time to spare.

I must say, the mass was the most dry thing I ever attended, but it got interesting when I figured out that I was about to faint. Trust me, I've fainted enough times to KNOW when I'm going to faint. So I sat down, eventually it passed, and I made my way back home (with no wrong turns!!).

I'm thinking about asking Debbie if I can do some laundry....I condensed the pile, but seriously....I have to do something.

TOMORROW I have teacher day at the school - I am super excited! Wednesday I am hoping to move into the flat as well. Granted, it's like three doors down, but it will be nice to be unpacked!
