Kate and I somehow managed to haul ourselves out of bed at 7 a.m. and we were standing outside Coffee Lovers ayt promptly 8 a.m. when it opened. We sat and had our coffee (butterscotch for me and a mocha coffee for Kate).
We walked to the Maastricht train station and took the train to Heerlen so that we could pack in just a little bit more shopping. I found a skirt, Kate bought gifts for friends, and I found an item that my mother will be VERY shocked and amazed about that I bought for her.
The train back to Maastricht left at 11:15 a.m. so we were back at Angela's by 11:30 a.m. so that we could take a large trip to the grocery at Albert Heijn. I filled my cart and threw in anything I could think of that looked good and small enough to pack.
The biggest task of the day was to pack. We put our new clothes and goodies in our backpacks and the trip clothes in a box each with some other odds and ends that wouldn't fit.
We are now going to drag everything downstairs to Angela's car and drive to Schinnen to send everything in the post. Angela wants us at AFNORTH by 3 p.m. so that I can talk with a senior about N.C. State, as she is very interested in attending. I told Angela Kate and I would sponsor her, but only if she is cool and fun like we are...
Our flight to London leaves at 7:30 p.m. and Anglea is going to drive us after school so that we can beat traffic and won't be late.
We are staying just outside Gatwick in Surrey this evening at a 3-star hotel that we got from LastMinute.com for $80 - yet again, another deal found.
