Across The Pond!

So we have officially moved. We got our keys to our lovely but small flat on Monday. The flight was long, and I was not feeling the best. Up until Sunday I was okay, but once Sunday rolled around, I started to get really nervous. Mike was such a trooper. He carried six bags all over London, and Oxford.

Our place is small, but the layout helps it feel way bigger that what it is. The kitchen is so much smaller than the one back home, but it is functional. We bought some groceries, and I am already missing American food. We will be doing some exploring today which I am really excited about. There is so much to do in this town.

This week in Bath is the Jane Austen festival and I am trying to convince Mike to take me there. So far he said maybe, that is way better than a no!! The weather has been sunny, and nice. No rain so far, but that can always change in an instant. There are tons of shops downtown Oxford, we live about 1 1/2 mile from the center of oxford, so its not bad. Our flat is quiet!

Well if you have skype feel free to skype us since we dont have a phone yet. Janie.Bowerbank is our skype address!
