When we landed in London , Gatwick things were really crazy, lot's of people everywhere and not only do people drive on the left they also keep to the left in the underground, very confusing for the canadians. Any way we got to Aunty Penny's and everythign was great.[I might be leaving small details out of what actually happened , but I'm sure Andria will fill in the  blanks, did I mention euro computer keyboards are a bit different so ths blog mayh  be a bit funny.] Andria and I were starving we ate and crashed earkly so the first night was a write off.

day 2 - walked down to downtown Leicester, which I really liked everyhting in Europe so far, every one has either dobeys, mastiffs or rotwiellers and the countryside is just unreal. Had coffee downtown then caught a bus where the driver thought I was American, very insulting, straightend him out told him thanks eehh has I got off , I guess I say that alot according to everyone out here. Joe and Penny then took us to this wicked park with live deer every where and killer looking trees and it was just amazing. Later that night we hit the pub , the pump and tap, coolest pub! the back room was retro fitted in to arch way of and old train bridge, unreal place and great atmosphere, my favour place so far in Leiceseter.

The next day we picked up Amelie at school she is adorable. We  had dinner at Adam and Keris's we had a wonderful dinner and drinks. After that we all hit the pubs downtonw ansd mewt Andria's cousins Shaun and Mark who are just awesome 15 pints or so later the night was done.

The next day I went to the pub with Joe and Adam to watch soccer ur football thart was loads of fun and Andria went tosome petting zoo with Keris and Amelie.

Today we went to that park again with everyone for a picnic it was amazing we met Mark's wife Horoko and their 2 kids so cute they are half japenese and english but  can speak fluent japenese, Shaun was there with his girl, Hester and 2 kids It alround was a great day. Tomorrow we are off to Paris can't wait to sit ona patio with a coffee. Joe and Penny have been really fantastic to Andria and I we have had a great time in Leicester.
