Weekend report

I can officially count our remaining weekends (living in England) on one hand. So much to do, so little time...

I am doing my best to enjoy the little bit of time I have left here. On Saturday, I ended up going to London on my own. Brad and the kids were tired from work/school all week, but I was ready to get out.

With no plan whatsoever, I got on the train and had a think. I decided to see a show. Since there is only one show I really want to see and I am planning to see that one with a friend in a couple of weeks, I decided to see a new show I knew nothing about.

The show is called Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. I honestly wasn't expecting to love it, but I did! It was about drag queens making a road trip (in an old bus called Priscilla) from Sydney to Alice Springs. Lots of singing and dancing and fabulous costumes.

On Sunday, we went to Family Fun Day at Susanna's school. This is the annual PTA summer fundraiser and it was very fun! They had go carts, pony rides, bouncy slide, games, crafts, and food. Like last year, Ben played the "Bottle Stall" game and won a nice bottle of wine!

Now we're back to Monday, but I know the week will go fast. Only four more weeks of school...

I can't believe you never saw that movie! Patrick Swayze in drag- it was a cult hit here!
