I did it. I tried Fish N’ Chips today…. And I liked it?! I have always hated fish so this is a bit beguiling to me. And chips, for those of you who don’t already know, are not potato chips like lays or etc but are fries. Lessons learned.
Speaking of vocabulary lessons, I’m learning a great deal of new vocabulary words. I’m having to “out” myself as an American everytime I ask what a word means (as if my accent doesn’t give it away).
Today, Kiri and I also went exploring Newcastle to sight see and everything. It has tons of beautiful buildings and very cool, moving bridges! Sadly, I didn't get to see one move... :(
Also, funnily enough I thought it was going to be blatantly obvious that I was American because of all my American Eagle clothing. But there is some brand here with the same/similar eagle. I am on the hunt to find out whether this is American Eagle Outfitters or something else. Details/results to come!
