So now that we were all packed into the bus, we were on our way to University. The driver told us that give or take it would take about 3 hours, and that we would be stopping somewhere along the way to get something to eat. We were all starving so we were totally psyched about getting some food. The highway there wasnt too exciting, but we were already able to see some of the differnces in the countryside and the cars and such. I think that the biggest difference in the country is their accents, and driving on the other side of the road. I really hope that I am able to give driving on the other side of the road a shot while I am here, I think it would be so much fun!! Anyway, we stopped over at a Boston Market on the highway to get something to eat, and it was like 9 dollars for a small salad and a side of mac and chesse...this country is a little pricey!! But I know that I am going to love it and not want to leave by the time I have to. When we were all done eating we loaded back on the bus and made our way to the University. I was so excited when we pulled up to the University, we were in a large parking lot, and the man pointed us all in the directions in which our dorms where...it was a little nerve racking, but Matt and MIke went one way...and Kristen and I the other...we planned to meet up later in the night, we were all very unsure of what was going on...hope everything goes well.
