angel in a tutu

[threeplusfire]

When we walked into the house last night, Blaine greeted us and pointed the way towards refreshments. In the kitchen, Angel was bopping around in a pink ballerina outfit and a tiara. She was having an excellent birthday party. Alan lost the bet, because by 10:45 she was out in the yard demonstrating her sword moves to the crowd. Then a kung-fu demonstration. All in the tutu. A very fun time was had by all, and excellent snacks. Good caviar, snow peas, cake, guacamole, olives and more.

We had lots of fun, and she really liked her gift. Sometime soon we will watch Pirates of the Carribean on the big television and eat popcorn.

I found a store not far from the big yellow school building where the student cafeteria is that sells paper and pencils and pens. I brought some of my own, just for comfort's sake. But you can easily pick stuff up at Tesco by the train station. Tesco is like the European version of Target.

Calling home is easy. You can buy cards to use in the phones for different amounts. The school gave me a list of codes for different countries, and I just popped the card into the machine and dialed. There were phones on every other floor of the dorm. I noticed the dorm you would be staying in has net access. Even if you don't have a laptop to take with you, there are internet cafes which are very cheap. (About a dollar an hour)
