After the build up since February when I applied to study with a church in California, the time has finally come for me to get on the plane...so with passport and Visa firmly secured to my person (you don't need to know me well to know that I am very good at losing things!) I am off tomorrow morning.
My birthday and leaving celebrations have gone on throughout the month of August (I am confidently assuming that my fabulous family and friends are happy for me rather than pleased to see me go!) and have included an impressive range of surprises from swinging through the trees in heavy rain to 'Afternoon' tea at the Ritz (which actually took place at 11.30am-but that's another story). As usual there are several mishaps to go along with my adventures - smashing my rather expensive and very full glass of Pimms & Champagne in the oh-so sophisticated bar on the 42nd floor of the Natwest Tower, falling out of the swinging doors at the Ritz (I was talking to someone behind me at the time) and walking into the Gentlemen's toilets in the Grosvenor Hotel.
To be honest, I don't really know what I am going to find when I get to Redding but I do know that God can only do good things and whatever is ahead of me is going to be an amazing experience!
Watch this space... (and keep in touch!)
