Well, our 2 weeks off of wwoofing are nearly over and we head to the next farm tomorrow. We took this time off to take care of a few things. We needed to go to immigration and social security to sort out a bunch of Ricks paperwork, then do some paperwork for Fanette being back in France. We also wanted to buy a car - which we did, a 2001 VW Polo TDi. We wanted something small which got good mileage so we could go wherever we wanted whenever we wanted.
Also, one of our friends, Kathleen, gave us tickets to go to London as well during these 2 weeks. She had some Eurostar miles earned and was making a trip at the same time, so she offered us tickets as a wedding present. London was fantastic, although we were amazed at how much you can spend in 4 days even with free tickets and a place to stay. We stayed with our friends Dan and Kymmie who live just outside of London. We had all lived in Thailand at the same time and left at about the same time. In fact, a good number of our friends had stayed a bit longer just for Dan and Kym's wedding - so it was like the big goodbye. We didn't sightsee in London really - we just took the time to hang out with good friends we hadn't seen in a while, got in a good workout at the gym where Dan works, and had a BBQ in honor of the good weather - the first BBQ of the year. Good way to spend a weekend, innit?
