Finally! An Almost Uneventful Day!

For those of you keeping up with my travel drama, I just want to say that we picked up the cats last night and they are fine. My luggage was delivered to a neighbor upstairs who seemed very nice (I think his name is Frasier). So all is well today in jolly old England.
Today I decided to go out an explore a little, so I hopped on my bicycle and headed in the direction of the closest Sainbury's to buy some basic sundries. About half-way there I realized that Blake had taken the lock off my bike yesterday when we were testing keys so I headed back home. Somehow I got completely turned around. After peddling aimlessly for about 10 minutes I finally found our street. Once I recovered my lock, I continued my journey this time without incident. The grocery here is, like our flat, tiny but they had most of what I was looking for (poor Blake is going to have to do without coffee beans for now). My backpack filled to capacity, I trekked home. If I do this every day or so I should be able to lose a little weight!
Speaking of which, Blake is taking me this evening to join our neighborhood gym. My only hope is that the local boys are as pasty and out of shape as I am!
I'm sure I'll have all sorts of interesting things to tell you about this next adventure!

Jeez, you finaly move somewhere where pale and pasty is the norm and now you go to gym. Sheesh! ;-)
 
I do envy your British shopping experience -- pick me up some Irn-Bru and digestive biscuits the next time you go to Sainbury's, won't you?
