Leaving on a jet plane...

Look, I'm posting two days in a row. I think we all know that's not going to last...
So, in 25 days I shall be leaving Senegal, on a jet plane, for England! It's nice because I'll be coming back so have no sad 'when will I see you again?' goodbyes or anything like that; just a nice uncomplicated holiday. Well, not entirely uncomplicated as I have lots of people I want to see and very little money with which to do it. Still, I'm extremely excited about it - I started a list, it got extremely long but here are the current top 5 things I'm looking forward to:
1. Ellen's wedding - the official reason for my return
2. Seeing my wonderful friends from near and far (well, everyone's far from me but some are coming further than others and I'm VERY excited)
3. British weather - rain, low humidity, what more could a girl ask for?
4. GREEN. I like Senegal, but I was not born to live in a desert city.
5. No strangers proposing to me on the street for almost four weeks. Heaven.

British food should be up there by rights but that would be a whole new list.
