Arrived in Jolly Ol' England

The adventure begins.

So we've finally arrived in England, I came 2 weeks after Michelle, but so far it's been great and we're still feeling the place out and orienting ourselves with the geography/location. A few notes from the first little bit:

  • Went driving on my second day here; 'learning' to drive on the left hand side and entering/exiting roundabouts are not that bad, the toughest part so far is getting used to the space on the left side of the car. Especially when you're driving on narrow one-lane streets with cars parked on the side, and cars oncoming, everything seems so tight and a) you'll knock off the side-view mirror of the car parked on the left or b) you'll go head-on with an oncoming car. Other than that, it's been fine.

  • Second day here, hit Pine Ridge Golf Center with some of Michelle's co-workers. Late tee-off time so we managed to get in 13-14 holes. Nice course, wide fairways, well-kept but greens were still being aerated. Booked myself for Chobham golf course next week, 20 GBP, 2pm special!

  • Cooked adobo for the first time and it was actually really good!

  • Getting our broadband internet + TV hooked up next week so researching on things to do will be a lot easier. Currently using a Vodafone broadband USB mobile key and it is sloooow. This weekend might be a weekend to Stonehenge and/or Windsor Palace and/or the Cotswolds. Stat tuned!
