Ok once again I'm falling behind! Sorry! Jeremy is typically on the computer working during the day so the only time I get computer time is between 1am and 2am. Let's see where did I leave off...oh yeah....
I miss my American food!!! I can't help but have this never ending feeling that I'm just not satisfied. Nothing is the same, even if it is the same thing....it's just not. The cereal here seems like it's sugarless...which I guess you could say that's healthy, but blah! who cares it's so bland! Anything and everything I seem to make or buy just doesn't seem as flavorful as back home. Ohhh the home sickness is starting to kick in.
And I also miss my car! Ahhhhh I'm so tired of having to walk everywhere. Not to mention I now have tendonitis...well I've been having it for about a week now, but just been hoping it would go away. Unfortunately that is unrealistic and I'm left with just hoping that I can continue to dance.
On a positive note we went to the Falls of Clyde on Friday. They are located in a little village called New Lanark. It's not much of a village, but it does exist. We took a two hour train ride to get there, then walked about a mile from Lanark to New Lanark. From there we hiked along the falls. It was a great trip and well worth the train ride. The falls were beautiful and the walk was so serene. It was really nice to get away and be in the wild! Once we walked along the falls to the end of the trail we looped around and took the nature trail back. It went more into the trees and woodland area.
Saturday we did nothing interesting. Jeremy worked the whole day and I had to sing on the Royal Mile then had my performance.
Sunday started out the same as Saturday, but then we had a fire! Yes it's true...a real fire...but nothing to worry about. It was actually an electrical fire right outside the door of our flat. The fuses blew and were on fire. Luckily the guy that lived above us called the fire department when his smoke detectors went off. All of the smoke was in the hall and it went straight into his flat. Not long after that 4 fire engines drove up and put the fire out. Whew! Once that was done they had to wait for Scot Power to show up so our flat mates invited them in for tea and biscuits. They then let us check out their fire engine and take pics! It turned out to be a pretty interesting day.
Today was another boring day of Jeremy doing work. Work, work, work....I thought we were on vacation...?
Oh and here are some reviews from local newspapers and online columns about our show:

"The singing and dancing were superb" audience member
"gorgeous dancers and stunning visuals" audience member
