Arrived Safely!

We have arrived safely in wet wet London! We had no idea that when we arrived London had just received an entire months worth of rain in ONE night. All the trains were delayed and it was IMPOSSIBLE and quite dangerous trying to fit into them. There were throusands of people pushing and getting stuck in the doors. Proved pretty difficult with our massive packs on our backs! We were thinking 'oh my gosh is this what it's going to be like!' Thank goodness we found out it was due to flooding. 

This didn't help that all the commuters needed to be home to vote (I'm sure you've seen the news).

Our Airbnb accommodation had emailed us to let us know that he couldn't have us anymore. It took us a long time to find somewhere within our budget, finally found a place for the week!

We have been to our appointments with our consultant to sign contracts and get all our information sorted. He has organised our bank appointment to set up accounts too. We are spending this week viewing flats/houses to live in. It's all pretty chaotic! Hopefully we will find some time to explore :-)

I (Grace) have a day relief teaching on Tuesday next week at my school that I begin working at in September. So looks like I better get shopping for a more professional look!!

Much love xx

Out of reception

Hello all :-) Just a post to let you know we may be out of reception the next few days. We are heading to an island called Koh Ta Kiev . We are pretty sure they don't have reception or Internet. We think we will be staying at accommodation called Crusoe Island.So, if contact is needed urgently, look them up (crusoeisland.asia) and they have a couple of numbers and email available. Love to you all xxx  The picture below is one of the lady's that walk around the beach with fruit on their heads. They cut it up and put it in a little bag with a skewer for you :-) mmmmmm

Calungute, Goa

We are feeling much better about life in India this week. One night at Vailannkani Guest House turned into six nights. The cleanliness and comfort was just what we needed. This week has consisted mainly of walking the markets, eating, playing cards on the beach, eating some more and exercising. Even though it is the monsoon season here it really doesn't rain that often. A dark, gloomy cloud will once or twice bucket down for five minutes and then it will be over. We have decided to venture to North India for a week and have booked flights for tomorrow to Jaipur in Rajasthan, from there we will go to Udaipur and on the 2nd of September we fly to Kerala. We hope all is well with everyone back home.
