OMG! Please excuse my pre-teen exclamation of abbreviated joy! This weekend has been so incredibly hot and sunny. You would not believe that Birminhgam can have such a beachy atmosphere! The sun is out and everyone is suddenly dressed in surf-wear and seersucker!
Friday afternoon, I had lunch with Germany and we discussed the plans for our upcoming trip with Aussie to the South West! We are going beach-hopping next week!
Saturday was just the best summer day! I met up with Germany and we checked out the local farmer's market. There are all kinds of food: cheese, apples, curry, fair-trade chocolate, home-baked goods, rhubarb, etc! There are all kinds of crafts: jewellery, painting, photos, books, etc! I bought this cool book about Birmingham as a sort of souvenir. After the market, we strolled up to Germany's back garden, where we lounged in the shade reading and snoozing. Aussie joined us a bit later on and we chatted to Germany's landlord about our trip (he's from the South West).
Sunday, after church, Aussie's roommates were having a bbq at their house as a going away party for 2 of them. So, we donned floaty summer wear and claimed our seat on the grass to enjoy some hamburgers, Pimm's, and live music, apparently. There was also a bouncy castle (which I declined to indulge in). But it was a great way to spend a scorching hot day!
I'm just hoping this weather returns in July for our road trip!!!
Also, I am trying to decide which bands I want to see at Glastonbury. Here are some of the contendors:
What do you think?
