AMANDAS VISIT TO ENGLAND!!!

Amanda came to visit me! She arrived on Thursday morning and like a champ I made her come to all of my classes with me in the morning. Unfortunately my last lacrosse game was the day before she game so didn't get to see my coaching in action, but got to participate in some rounders. Which for anyone who doesnt know what rounders is...its fake baseball. You can score points without even hitting the ball....

Amanda and I!

On friday night we went to London and checked into our hotel - the Thistle Euston. The hotel was really nice and in a great location. We went to Oxford Circus and had a fantastic dinner!

On Saturday morning we woke up bright and early to go see a West Ham v Man U game! It was sick. We were living Green Street Hooligans. We went as Man U supporters but left West Ham fans 1) because we couldnt buy/find and man u gear, and the whole atmosphere / culture of the west ham fans was such a fun thing to be a part of.  Hammys were up 2-0 at half time, but lost 4-2! 4 goals were in penalty kicks and Rooney got a hat trick! It was really exciting being able to see him play. The game wound up getting a lot of press because rooney cursed on national television and is facing a 2 game suspension which is a big deal coming into the cup finals. After than we did some touristy things (big ben, westminster) and grabbed dinner at a pub and frolicked around.





On Sunday we woke up and took a ridiculously expensive train ride back to manchester where we stayed in a dumpy motel and went out to end the trip!

I loved having here her!!! Pictures to come :)
