we made it to cap!

After almost 24 hours of traveling, Bre and I made it to Heathrow airport. We hopped on the Heathrow express, which took us to Paddington station. We thought (okay I thought:) oops), that we could get to Carnforth station, where Capernwray is directly from there. We asked five or six bewildered people but they had never heard of Carnforth in their life and they were the information people! ha. Finally one lady looked it up, and said all we needed to do was go to Euston, another train station and start from there. So we ventured onto the tube with our fatty backpacks! Bre was our bomb navigator and we were finally on our way to see Hannah! :) When we got to the cute little town of Carnforth it was literally deserted, except for one gas station type grocery store. We managed to find a pay phone and five or six different calls to taxi companies later, we finally found a guy who wasn't "having his evening drink" at the time. Thank goodness!! It was just a quick ride there and Haun immediately ran to our car! It was so great to see her in her new element. We got the grand tour of the castle and met many of her friends. :) We got up this morning, took a few pics around the castle and got in our cab, where our driver was playing the viva la vida cd, me and bre looked at each other and got so excited! :) it'll be great. Then we were off to Liverpool!
