Tonight is the time change here. We go from GMT 0:00 to GMT +1 01:00. It's called British Summer Time or BST. The days have been quite long already and I think it will be a hot summer- it has been very warm already!

The routine of life here is different from America. Kids are about to have 2 weeks off from school Apr 3-17 for Easter Holidays. It's like having a 2 week vacation at the end of each semester. Anyway term end affects everyone everywhere because travel prices go up, parents have to take time off school, lots of middle class families go to France or Italy where it's warmer, or visit grandparents.

Did you know that kids here call their grandmas "Nan" instead of Grandma? I don't know what they call grandpas, but it isn't the same either! :)

This weekend is the iHUB (international ministry) retreat, pr that lots of internationals would hear about JC and want to follow him. Also pr for my business friends to be curious about JC. Last night I went bowling with a big group of them, here are some photos!
