Today involved getting up and packing, which took a loooong time and setting up the car(Mew's car which we have in order to get to Vermont, con and then Dad's lot take it to Detroit) to go to brunch at a friend's, then on to Vermont. I also managed to set my iPod up with this computer and talk to some people online for a bit, as well as ringing Mum for Mother's Day. There is so much snow, but it was all totally frozen this morning, it was bizarre. Everytually everything and the bag was packed.

We went to 'The Big Blue House', the house of Persis, Spencer and wee Talis. It was good, there was much food but we were rather late so we had to set out quite quickly. We are staying with Mew and Ed, and their children Rowan (7) and Corwin (5). Rowan is rather loud and totally idolises Gavin.

It was girl's in one car and boys in the other for the first part of the journey. We gossiped and talked and laughed and it was good. We stopped briefly at a supermarket, then continued on.

It was a long journey, but by about 6 we got to Lebanon, where we after much dilemma and me spilling orange juice all over myself ate at a pizza place called Lui Lui's which was good, but took a while. For the final leg of the journey Dad, Ed (he had to get away from the kids for a bit) Anna and I were in one car with the rest in the other.

I listened to the most recent Now show podcast; very funny; and attempted to sleep. I also talked C# and Visual Express and Dot net and I felt smart for the last 5 minutes before we got to another supermarket for breakfast stuff for tomorrow, that was fun as tere were scary products. I picked up a couple of gifts. Not long after that we finally got here. It's a very nice place with wireless :P. We (Dad, Gwen, Gavin, Anna and I) are all in the boys room - I got the top bunk with the dinonaur sheets!

Getting Rowan tobed was slightly traumatic "Stop distracting Gavin from me. I'm sure everyone wants to talk to Gavin, but I want to talk to him now. I want to sleep in the same room and Gavin!' etc, but they're both in bed now, as am I.

I took a few pictures today, pretty much all of scenery through the window and icicles and things. It is an incredibly pretty place, driving through was nice in that respect. I will hopefully have time to sort these pictures out tomorrow. Today, I'm tired.
