Meg and Ellen have returned to Great Britain (third in the Olympics medal table). Apparently the weather has followed them - the country is sweltering in 30C+ heat. Apart from the places where they have flood warnings.
Their final day was a highlights package of the rest of the trip. At 8.30am Meg and I were in a somewhat chilly swimming pool (neighbour Peggy came out to see who was crazy enough to be in the water at that hour). This was followed by a trip to Target, then to Trader Joe's, froyo at Yogurtland, and lunch at the Habit Burger. The only disappointment was the Peet's Coffee at the airport, Ellen's final treat to herself, which was only open 5am to 2pm! Oh well, it's always good to have something to come back for.
Goodbye E&M, thank you for entertaining me so much during your stay. It was also very educational; I'm now off to the library to pick up the latest book in the Rainbow Magic: Princess Fairies series - Anya the Cuddly Creatures Fairy. Without Meg here, how am I going to find out if the fairies manage to reclaim all their magic tiaras from Jack Frost and his goblins?
It's not Peet's, but needs must.
