A variety of accommodation - differing views
... anything was being fried you were surely going to leave smelling of it too. Good location and parking on site, very homely and I would recommend at the top of the B&B experience that I have had in this city.
There were others, but these were all within the under £100 budget and I have judged them all on the basis of a few days stays rather than just the odd night, unless stated.

Matter of weeks left
... collect at some point this week. All other visas we will sort out along the way.
I don't really know where to start in terms of journal entries, so for now I will keep it short and say I intend to keep an up to date blog, which i hope will be entertaining to read and keep you amused along the way.
I'll check back in a few days time with something productive to say and hopefully a tad more interesting to read.

Home and done!!
But I say Adios to my 10 bed hostel dorms, shared bathrooms, Spanish speaking (which included a lot of pointing/actions/smiling and shrugging my shoulders/French/general Spanglish), throwing toilet paper in the bin, beautiful sights and scenery. And hola to the UK and my brilliant friends and family that I can't wait to catch up with.
It is good to be home once more…until next ...
I Believe I Can Fly.......
So after a VERY stressful few days, I have thankfully got the all clear from the doctor this afternoon and can fly tomorrow - whoop whooop!!
Had (and still having) a bit of a stress about trying to get everything into one small backpack - this weight restriction rule is ridiculous!
Anyway just wanted to 1. Say hello and let you know we are off tomorrow and 2. Check that this even works!!
Speak to you all soon
Love Amy and James x
