Then having arrived at the next destination. 

She was just telling us that the weather was wonderful and then...

the skies opened up and they sought shelter in the car. 

The next morning, they were preparing to set out again when they realised one of the cars were stuck, 

After trying for over an hour to free the car, they gave in and asked for help from the people living there. 

Oh my... the indentations from the tires. 

It is Easter break and the group of them planned for a road trip. C was excited and was talking about it for weeks. 

This was them onboard the train to Edinburgh. 

Their first accommodation. 

2nd accommodation.

I love this photo a lot!

The views were amazing.  The signal up there is a bit hit-or-miss, so we’re cherishing every update we get. It’s a 'no news is good news' kind of situation, but seeing these photos definitely puts our minds at ease. Does anyone recognise these tracks? #iykyk 

This was them driving out at night—Daddy made sure to remind her to keep the driver awake and alert! C's reply made us laugh; she said they’ve been chatting his ear off and he’s been singing along to their playlist the whole way. It’s heartening to know they’re having such a good time together.

The group headed to Derby for the weekend!

Spring isn't my favourite season but I love flowers. 

C was at a church in Nottingham and all of them returned to the dorm with their own pot of plant. 

This is hers. :) 

Pretty daffodils looking out and enjoying the view from C's window.  

Last week was a busy week: she had assignments to work on and projects to complete so besides the weekly grocery run, meal prep, and lecture readings, she was in her room completing work. Oh yes, she also came down with fever earlier part of the week and spent Sunday sleeping it off. 

Then on Wednesday, she told us that she and the group would be going to Nottingham again this weekend. :) 

They spotted NTU: UK version! 

She said the portions were always large and filling. 

They also attended church where they were gifted some plants. :) The leaves resembles that of a daffodil plant so lets hope they bloom into those pretty yellow flowers. 

Went to Nottingham Castle too.

When you hear 'Nottingham', you think 'Robin Hood'.

Here they were, back in their room after. 

C has a thing for fridge magnets. 

That time of the week where C did the meal prep with her friends. 

Next week, they will be having cabbage rolls and 

It is always quite comforting to have warm soup with rice. :) 

There is always something to do when the weekend draws near. C is diligent with her readings, tutorials, and lectures. On the days where she does not have classes to attend, she stays indoors to finish up her readings or whatever work she has with her team mates. 

The group of them were supposed to head up to Nottingham the previous weekend but some of them were slightly under the weather so plans were postponed. 

The 40-minute bus ride out. 

C said it was sunny but oh so windy. 

Being miles away from home, and especially during this festive season, homesickness must hit hard and different. It was heartwarming to learn that they got together for their own celebration.
