Anchorage to England and back again

Okay, so it's been a while since I last wrote. Gimme a break, I've been livin' life. Let me tell you about it.

Anchorage at the beginning of October
After being at Katmai National Park from May through the end of September, it was time for me to rejoin society. First stop, Anchorage, Alaska.

I sent about a week in Anchorage with one of my best friends, Amanda. She worked most of the time, but we did have a chance to get out somewhat and even do some shopping. Amanda bought some awesome jeans for me!

Also during that week, Jeff, one of the Katmai Law Enforcement rangers, also stopped by for a little while. Jeff and I took I hike to Flat Top, one of the most hiked mountains in Anchorage. It was beautiful!! We had been blessed with a number of days of wonderful weather.

It was a good week. It was the pre-prep for Amanda's 3 month work trip to India. She'll be headed there at the end of this week, November 1st. It's all very exciting, but I'll get to that. It was also prep time for me going to London! I had very little to carry to London, but then again I didn't have much out at Katmai either.

As soon as I get photos of week one, I'll post them. It may be a while.


2.5ish Weeks in London

It took me a total of about 15 hours to get to London. Thankfully I only had one connection and the flights were relatively empty. I only met two people on my way there; one of them was the flight attendant and the other is a single girl hitch-hiking around Europe at the moment. I think she's crazy!

I was very happy to make it to London and to see Rowan. A good friend of mine that is now my boyfriend.(I must be a glutton for punishment to be back in a long distance relationship.) Anyhow, I had a great time in London! I saw oh so much! I even got to see Oxford with my step-sister's boyfriend, Ben, who goes there.


Awesome photo taken by Rowan.

Well... it looks like my typing time is up. I need to head to my new job. It's a huge cut in pay and it's kind of hippy-ish, but it's a job. Yay fair trade store.
