Quick Catch Up

Okay, this is going to be like the ticker-tape on CNN - headline news for June!

Last formal dinner of the year - hello to the new warden and his wife (Trevor and Samia), and goodbye to many of the students who have been at Lee Abbey since September.


I took a trip with some of my Lee Abbey friends to Oxford and walked around - very cool town, lots of great atmosphere, old buildings, history . . . see picture album.


I traveled to Serbia with Tatjana, my former roommate; I visited her friends and family in her hometown of Šid (pronounced Sheed) and then we journeyed by bus to Belgrade to meet up with my close friends Laura and Simone. I spent the rest of the week hanging out with them in near 40ºC weather (around 100ºF).


Now I'm back in the beautiful drenching 20ºC rain in England . . . and I think I'm appreciating a bit more than my coworkers who didn't blister in the Eastern European heat. I do miss the amazing gelato we found in the Belgrade cafés . . .
