Having fun in the UK

Hi everybody,
I am having lots of fun here in Plymouth. It took us 24 hours and 4 planes to get here. It was a very long and exhausting trip. Then the airline lost our luggage. We got it back the day after we arrived.This is the view from my bedroom window. Beautiful!
I started at my school on Tuesday and I love it. My teacher is very nice and I am learning alot from her. However she is not there everyday which kind of stinks. I am doing alot of observing rather than teaching here. It is not as strenuous as my internship in Jacksonville.
There are alot of things that are different here than in Florida. I didnt think that it would be so different. One big thing is of course the driving. They drive on the left side of the road and also do not have any stop signs (they have roundabouts instead). Also, the light goes from red to yellow to green instead of straight to green.
We've been taking the bus to and from school everyday which is a new experience for me. Its hard to figure out which bus to take if we want to go somewhere else.
People are so nice here. We went to the grocery store and pizza hut last nite and we wanted to call a cub so we asked the waitress if there was a phone anywhere that we could use for the taxi and she let us borrow her cell phone. Also, they gave us free soda at pizza hut as well. And today, we were going to the city centre to do some shopping and have dinner and we asked the teachers which bus we should take and one of them offered to drive us.
There are alot of words here that are different as well:
restroom = toilet/loo
eraser = rubber
sneakers = trainers
to go = takeaway
cookies = biscuits
sweater = jumper
french fries = chips
potato chips = crisps

There is a store here called primemark that has really cheap clothes. We went shopping there today and I got a few really cute things.

What are you all up to at home? I love you all and miss you.
