Bowtie shopping

I really like Cambridgeing. It is a really interesting activity and you can also do it with friends and family. Today I showed it to my parents and I think they really enjoyed it.
So let me explain: You need to go to a city called Cambridge and you walk around in circles. In the meantime you also go into random shops and if you want you can buy stuff. For example I bought a really nice bowing tie today that I will probably wear tomorrow for the New Years party!

Chocolate fever

In quite a rush we were running to catch the train that drives to Huntingdon. I was so excited, finally after nearly five months I will see my parents again :D
So after we arrived (and waited for them finding the train station) we directly drove to the Bed and Breakfast always checking that my dad didn't drive in a tree because of the wrong car side. When we arrived we were really surprised because the B&B was in a really nice little village and the rooms are just lovely! We also went out to eat dinner in a typical english pub and my dad tried an ale pie...

Photographing and eating ducks

This day we slept quite long. But then around twelve o'clock we went to "Le pain quotidien" to eat lunch and it was just really nice :D

In the afternoon we took the bus to Primrose hill and took some fun pictures from up there.. There were a lot of people on the viewpoint because you it was such a nice panorama.

After walking quite a bit we crossed Regents park, where I took some pictures of diving ducks and we took the tube to visit the TATE modern. There I was waiting for Arianna because she painted a cute rabbit on a children-drawing tablet.

After that we went to Chinatown to eat ducks, I really enjoyed it :)

A long journey

Today I was travelling to London again to see my friend Ari and her parents. And in two days my parents will come over as well :D
But the travelling didn't go so well, because the train was so crowded. And because so many people travel by train and underground many stations were closed and in the end it took me three hours of being in London. We were supposed to arrive around twelve o'clock but I arrived at half past three in the Starbucks near Knightsbridge.
After waiting for Ari and doing an Unity 4 project on my computer we went to a very nice Italian restaurant together to eat dinner.

Not so much...

Today was not such a day where a lot of things happened. I ate a lovely breakfast (with smoked salmon) with my family and the grandparents. Than, after they left we needed to move some objects in my room because the bed was all this time in front of the heating what caused that the heat didn't really spread in my room...

So now it is all right and I have even completed all my pschology schoolwork :D

Christmas Day!

I woke up by a shock of loud Christmas music and I thought I was in a nightmare... No just kidding! My host mum woke me up and I got dressed quite quickly because we all went to church together (the thing with the loud christmas music was true by the way).
After church we went home again and I got dressed properly and took a shower. Time to go to a Christmas lunch. And it was really worth the driving, because the food was just delicious and we had a great time! (Caroline even took her own christmas-table-decoration with her :P )
In the evening we watched the Dr Who Christmas special and I really enjoyed seeing Capaldi saving the day again :)

Baking cookies :D

This day I slept very very long! But it was also worth it because now I know what happens if I don't set any alarm clock and nobody wakes me up :P

So today in the afternoon I went baking some cookies with my host mom. I didn't really know what she put in those cookies but they tasted delicious... I decorated them with some silver sugar things that looked good. Mmmmmh

Nearly Christmas!

Well, what do you think of if you hear the word "Christmas"? The first thing that comes into my head is snow and then maybe the disturbing blinking and wrong coloured christmas lights but I am sure nobody thinks of an orange sky in the afternoon! But it is not Christmas yet, still one more day for the snow to come...

Walking in the Winter Wonderland

This lovely day I spent my day with my hostfamily in London first we were walking a bit around watching a street artist in Covent Garden performing his arts and looking at all the stunning Christmas decoration which was all over the place :D (I think Caroline still enjoyed it the most!)
After that we split up because all the others went to Harrods, but it was just too crowded for me and I have already been there one week ago. So I went looking for a piano store near Knightsbridge and I found one quite soon! It was a german piano producer I never heard of before but I really enjoyed walking around in the shop and trying out all these lovely pianos. It was the first time I played on a 2m50 grand piano and the sound was just wonderful!
In the later afternoon we went all together to the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park. It is a huge attraction with a lot of (too expensive) roller coasters and food stands. But it was a really nice place because all the people seemed to have fun :)
