On Saturday night, we went an area of Jacksonville called The Landings which was right by the river. It’s got lots of shops and restaurants and there was also a Jazz Festival going on so it was pretty lively! We found an Italian restaurant and ate there.
Sunday was spent chilling out and packing to go! Karen and Allysa took me to the airport and we said our goodbyes with a group hug (as only sisters/aunties/nieces can!). My first flight was to Philadelphia and there I had a 4 hour stop-over until my flight to London Heathrow. I wasn’t too impressed with the flight to London. The food was pretty naff and there were no individual screens on the backs of the seats :-( However, after dinner, I managed to get about 3 hours sleep.
We arrived in London at about 11am on Monday morning and I had to collect my luggage and check in for my flight to Edinburgh. I just about managed to stay awake until my flight was called but it was hard work! I arrived in Edinburgh at 3.30pm and Jon collected me from the airport – it was great to see him again!! When we got home, the cats pretty much ignored me until later that evening even though I fed them tuna – their way of saying how annoyed they were that I had been away so long ;-)
I have had an amazing time over the last 3 months! So many people have said how quickly it has gone but for me, it didn’t go too quickly or too slowly – a good pace! I am happy to be home now. I have lots of plans over the summer (many of which involve diving!) and it is lovely to be back with Jon, the pussies and all my friends and family!
Thanks so much to all of you who have followed my blog over these last 12 weeks and for all the lovely comments you have made! I hope you have enjoyed following my blog as much as I have enjoyed writing it!
I’m not quite sure how a blog should be finished but here goes……………………BYEEEE!!
