Jersey Boys + English Countryside


Fire Juggler in Covent Garden... dude, its crazy! =)

Me, Sana, Laura after the Jersey Boys Musical

Sana and Laura... I majorly love these girls!!!

English Countryside...

All the houses and stores are made out of stone. PLUS all the villages we saw were made up of less than 8 streets!

Me and Juliet... it was chilly, rainy, and gray. What a stereotypical English day to visit the countryside... Can you tell we're cold and wet??? Maybe we just look awkward and scary... =)

I went to Covent Garden with some friends to this place Dirty Martini, apparently known for their amazing martinis. Having never tried most of their flavors before, I decided to be exotic and got both a chocolate and lychee one (not together). THEY'RE SOO GOOD!!! They costed an arm and a leg but, I thoroughly enjoyed every sip! =)

So Jersey Boys was AGES ago (like before Greece and Turkey) but I HAD to post it because it was INCREDIBLE!!! The cast was amazing, the music was amazing, and most importantly, my company was AMAZING (Sana and Laura). And the best part was, we got FREE tickets and had INCREDIBLE seats. Its definitely, by far, my favorite musical to date! No wonder it was voted Best Musical two years ago...

The rest of the pictures are from visiting the English countryside. We took a bus out like 2 hours and saw four villages: Stow-on-Wold, Bourton-on-the-Water, Cotwolds, and Buford. It was crazy! All the streets were cobblestone, all the houses made of stone, there were daffodils EVERYWHERE, and they were all picturesquely quaint. Plus, each of these villages were separated by miles of pastures and sheep. It was awesome getting out of the city for day but I don't know how much I'd like living in the English countryside... though it rained ALL DAY (which is weird bc it hasn't rained much in general), I think it gave me a glimpse of what England is really suppose to be like; rainy and gray.

I'm traveling to Kazakhstan to visit the WONDERFUL Laura tomorrow morning. For the prayers out there, could you please lift up the next two weeks please? That Laura and I would have a wonderful time together and that in the midst of it all that I'd get my work done as well. Unfortunately I have to take my work with me to Kazakhstan to finish... =/

Cheers!
Hannah =)
