Well, time is up! My bags are packed (seriously overweight I'm sure) and all except for my last few things in the morning, I'm ready to go. I have checked in at the airlines, I have my boarding passes, and the coach will be here to pick us up at 6:15, even though our flight doesn't leave until 10 something. Tonight we took a group picture; I look completely stupid, but anyway. We had dinner at the OXO Tower, which is right on the Thames, and took a ride on the London Eye. Then, we came back to our flat, our professor had arranged a little going away celebration, during which we found out some interesting things about Dr. E. I can't post any pictures, because my card reader for my camera is already packed up. We land in Charlotte at 2:25, I leave for Orlando at 4:30, Andrea stays in Charlotte for a while longer, and I'll land in Orlando at 6:07 p.m. barring any Florida thunder or lightning storms. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here in London, but I will be SO glad to get home. Home to my house and my family, and my bathtub and my church! My plans for Friday are a pedicure and a nap. Saturday, I may have to see if my dad will meet me half way between his house and mine to get my cat and bring him home, and if I can squeeze it in, another nap is on the agenda. Sunday, back to my church, and guess what – a nap! Monday, it's back to school, without my dear friend Mrs. Smith for the first time in my teaching career. I will surely miss her, but I wonder if I'll get more stuff accomplished. . . So, summer is over, the fabulous travel is over, no more weekends in Paris or Scotland, back to my same old life. Right now, it sounds pretty good!

Sounds pretty good to me, too. Glad you're coming home, although I'm so thankful you got to have this experience!
