I'm at Disney! This morning Ed and I got the RER into Marne-la-Vallee, Chessy (the station for Disney) and had some lunch at Annette's diner in the Disney Village. I started to get a bit nervous and just wanted to jump on the Eurostar with Ed and go home. Saying goodbye at the station was really horrible, but there were two girls there starting as well who I spoke to which stopped me thinking about it. We waited for everybody else to arrive, all in all there ar...

I'm in Paris! Ed and I got the 10.55am Eurostar this morning which got into Paris just before 2pm French time. We found our hotel, but the room wasn't ready so we went for lunch at a cute little bistro near the Luxembourg Gardens. I had French onion soup which I love so I was happy. We then went back to the hotel, which is really nice. It's all quaint and French and it smells nice which is a bonus. This afternoon/evening we did a whistlestop tour of some of t...

I just have lots of clothes that I can't choose between! I leave for Paris in the morning, and will have to lug everything to ...

I've finished at Eurostar! I had my final jabs yesterday morning for travelling, which were my third Rabies jab and my Yellow Fever one. I was glad I'd chosen to bake my cupcakes for work on Wednesday night because the jabs didn't make me feel too good. The cupcakes were all sparkly (see pic) and everyone at work really liked them which is a bonus! I started to feel a bit groggy at work yesterday but I stuck it out and came home to snuggle with a hot water bo...

I'm back! Still haven't gone to Paris yet, but I have been visiting people before I go. Last weekend I went back up to Durham. As soon as I got off of the train it felt like I hadn't been away at all! On Friday I went out with the Durham Saints (the American Football team), Lulu and I were the only girls but it was quite enjoyable watching the rookies getting told to down a 'PINT OF WINE' and then doing it to impress the older lads. I've missed socials so much! ...
