I am once again sat on a plane as it seems to be the only free time I get to write anything down. This past week in England has been hectic. I arrived into York about 10am and got picked up by Grandma and Grandad. It was so nice to see them both there waiting for me to get off the train!

Jet Lag is a Killer!

I was hoping to go for a nap until midday (secretly until around 3pm) as I had practically been awake all night. Grandma had already arranged for me to go see my aunties and cousins so I didn’t have time. This ruined my plan of getting through the jetlag quicker, and I’ve been awake at 5-6 o’clock everyday this week because of it!

It has been so good to see everyone and spend loads of time with the little ones. Ella still won’t give me a cuddle but I got a few high fives out of her. I reckon I just needed another week to win her over. Stanley is the same as always, he loves to talk and is super hyper all the time. He has read 100’s of books to me over the past couple of days I couldn’t keep up.

Since being back I have eaten so much rubbish. It has been difficult going form tiny rations in Hong Kong to English meals. I’ve had sausage and mash, 2 roast dinners, fish and chips form the chippy, pie and chips, the list is endless. I’m definitely excited to go back to the fresh Mediterranean diet for a few weeks (minus Christmas day of course).

 

Back to Lanzarote for Christmas!

Grandma + Grandad are coming over to Lanzarote today as well. They dropped me off at 5am this morning and their flight isn’t until 11am bless them! Their plan was to hang around in the car for a while but grandma ended up forgetting her phone at home this morning, so I think they were going back to get that. At least it’ll kill some time for them!

I cannot wait to get home and see everyone. Mum will be coming to get me form the airport and maybe dad if he’s not working. Tom will probably still be in bed knowing him but that’ll soon change once I’ve jumped on him! I am most excited to see the pup though, as bad as that sounds. You cant talk to them on skype and ask them how they are so you do miss them that extra bit.

Meet My Dog Cody!!

I need to get a massage when I’m back as well. My neck and shoulders are rock solid from carrying a huge backpack round with me for 3 months. Even when I didn’t have to carry it (on days out) I still had my camera bag with me which easily weighs 5kg so I am very built up.

Apparently, it’s sunbathing weather in Lanzarote at the minute so if that’s true I know what I’m doing as soon as I get off this plane! I still have over an hour left and don’t know what else to do with myself. I’ve edited all my pictures, listened to music and wrote my entry. I tried sleeping but that was a massive fail – its going to be a long hour!
