Hello all! I have decided with the amount of people who want to hear about how my year is going that a blog might be a good way to let you all know! However, I would still love to hear from you all personally. I have my address for any mail you may want to send. I would love anything from postcards to letters! Here's the address:

Day One!
Today was great! we all arrived at London Heathrow Airport, 6 of us were on the same flight, Anna was already in England and Steven was soon to join us once we pointed out that the reason he couldn't find us was because he was in terminal 2 while we were in 3. Kathy and Martin were waiting for us and had a bus ready to drive us the 3 hours up to Nottingham. The drive was fun to see a bit of "real England" although it was a major highway the whole way with
lots of traffic. once we arrived in Nottingham we headed straight for the flat

Our Flat! We live above the church's parish hall which is in the front part of the picture. |

we are living above a German Lutheran Church which will be fun seeing that we can have the run of the place when there are not church events.
