Mom and Dad just left *-*

Mom and Dad just left here, on their way to Southampton airport to go back home :( Having them here was loads of fun and it was much better than last time, 'cause we had to unpack a lot then and we had a lot less time together. I had a great time this weekend! ^-^

So, what did we do?
On Thursday morning, Mom and Dad arrived. They first went to their B&B and then at about 12 noon, they we at my place. We went to the Cowherds, a great Pub nearby and had an amazing Lunch XD Then we went to the tourist information to get some information about gallaries in the neighbourhood and we visited 2 gallaries. It was quite funny, because in front of the tourist information we couldn't really park, so dad stayed in the car. Mom and I went to get some info, but when we got back and looked for the car we only saw a small english car with a really old man inside, so we thought that dad must've gone to find a parking spot somewhere or just drive around a bit.... The black car drove forward a bit and it turned out that it was dad who was actually in the car! This is not a joke or anything, me and mom really thought it was an elderly man in the car! >.<>

So, we saw some gallaries and went back to my place where we had a few sandwiches, we were still quite full from our late lunch. Then we went to the cinema and saw Seven Pounds with Will Smith. It was a great movie! Mom, of course, fell asleep in the first bit, but when it got a bit more exciting she stayed awake :D We had a good time. Then mom and dad left me at my place, 'cause I had an exam the next day, and went back to their B&B to get some sleep ^-^

The next day I had a 2 hour exam at 10 am, but I was already done at 10:50 >.<>

We made Hutspot and my friends really liked it, pfiew! ^-^ And for dessert we made an apple-blueberry crumble, it was delicious and really gezellig XD After diner we went to the B&B and slept there with the three of us. The next day, Saturday, we had a great breakfast and then went to the Isle of Wight. The weather wasn't that great, but at least there wasn't that much rain :D We went to the Osbourne House (where Queen Victoria and Prince Albert used to live) and then we drove around a bit, saw a few gallaries, drove some more, and had diner in a pub in Yaermouth. Then we went back by ferry and slept wonderfully in our soft bed and beautifully decorated rooms.

Then today, we had another great english breakfast. Then mom and dad brought me to my room, 'cause I had to study for my exam tomorrow!! O.O and then they went to Winchester, where they went to a Sunday Mass and shopped a bit, buying mom more clothes!!! O.o; (clothes here are really cheap right now, it's sale everwhere and the pound is relatively low compared to the euro, so mom and dad didn't hold back *-*). Then at about 2 pm mom and dad came back and we had another great lunch at the Cowherds XD YUM! I can still tase the deliscious desserts we had, I love my puds ^.^ After lunch we went to my room for a bit and then I saw mom and dad off.... they'll have retuned the car by now I think. It was great having dad drive in a car with the wheel on the wrong side! XD You should've been there, the engine stopped quite a few times and he kept hitting his arm on the door when he wanted to change gears ^-^ Hilarious XD

Anyway, they'll be checking in soon and flying home. I'm much calmer, though, then last time when they left, which is good. I've settled in quite well already and I have great friends here, which makes it a lot easier. Also, in living here for a while now, I've gotten more used to not having my parents around anyway, which really made me grow a lot I think.... O.o; wow I sound so philosophical now >.<>

Will keep you informed about my exam results, when I get them XD Talk to you later! ~xxx~ Fleury

(p.s. mom or dad, if you want to tell some more about what you did in Winchester and how you liked being here, feel free to do so XD It'll be fun to read your side of the story ^-^)
