A Trip to England

In about three weeks me, my sister, and my mother will be traveling to Manchester, England! The way this trip came about is rather quite sudden and suprising to the whole family. I will try to keep my story brief as it is a bit detailed and lengthy. Well, my uncle happens to be an architect, who designs different kinds of sports stadiums. One of the stadiums he is working on currently is a soccer stadium in England. He is also one of the many designers for the 2010 Final Four stadium in Indiana. So obviously he has been flying to and from the United States constantly through out the past year. Flying in an airplane might get old after a while, but it also has its advantages when it comes to frequent flyer miles that you get when you have to fly to and from distant places often. It just so happens that he had enough flyer miles to share with my mother, my sister, and I for two weeks! It was so overwelming when I first found out about the whole thing. I have always wanted to go to England, but I didn't expect it to creep up on me so suddenly. But I am so glad is has! What an oppurtunity to learn about a new culture and country. I have been studying up on England as much as I possibly can and I also have been working at my Dad's office two afternoons a week to earn money as well. I plan to take plenty of pictures when I am there so don't worry I will share as many as I can with you! I said I would try to keep this post brief, but as you can see I have failed you that statement. So until I write again good-bye!
