First Full Weekend


This was my first full weekend here. It was a great weekend! Friday night Andy and I went to a pub he and Rich discovered when they were here together. Then we went looking for a pub that was still serving dinner (pubs stop serving food here usually around 10pm). We ended up in a cozy little pub that had every square inch of the wall covered with memorabilia from the Queen and random celebrities. A group of English people ended up sitting with us and we had a great time! They told us where Madonna lives, so the next day we found her flat!


You see the most interesting things here. We were checking out a mothercare store (Andy's client) and saw out the window a horse parade of some sort. Didn't see to be connected to anything in particular. People we talked to thought they were probably practicing for some future event.


Saturday night we went to Adrian's birthday party. He is the one in the picture wearing the Captain America outfit and Catherine, his girlfriend is wearing the Wonder Woman outfit! It was awesome! They looked great!! It was a really fun night.

What a fun weekend; sounds like your integration into the community early on is going nicely. We look forward to checking out some of these pubs with you two when we visit! Maybe Modonna will join us :) Breakfast is ready so time to go. Keep smiling.
Love from Cannon Beach.
