Easter Holiday Part 3: San Francisco

Wednesday in San Francisco… We met up with the Petty’s in the hotel lobby and wandered off for breakfast somewhere. We found a nice place called Pat’s cafe, and I had blueberry pancakes with a huge mug of tea. It was a good breakfast! We then went off to find Westfield’s and Macy’s. Westfield’s was quite awesome. We spent ages looking for a birthday present for Toby that wasn’t $80 upwards, and eventually found the Hollister shop. I got a pair of shorts, a tee and a nice checked shirt, mum got a shirt, Chris got lots of tees and dad got a shirt. And I got a shirt for Toby. And dad paid for it all, although his card had actually been frozen due to transactions in America, so mum paid. Read More...

And pretty much only the wing. Fantastic! Read More...

Sigh of Relief.. Sort of!

I phoned up Southampton University on Thursday after talking to Mum about what I was thinking, and the guy at Ocean Sciences was really helpful. He said he’d send my application over to Biological Sciences for Zoology, and I rang up today and they’ve received it, so now I’m just playing the waiting game again. Read More...

 

Summer?

I think it’s been summer. Not quite sure, judging by the weather. Maybe we had all the summer we were allowed to have in April. I had quite a good time off though.. Read More...
