A little update...

For those of you who have been asking how I'm getting on, on facebook and the likes, I've been a bit crap at getting back to you all because the internet in my room is really dodgey and it cuts out if I move.

I'm getting on well anyway, basically. Yesterday was really sunny and I went into town and wandered around. Felt really really homesick and then I got lost and ended up wandering the island for ages before two nice men at a petrol station offered to let me borrow their bike and when I refused because I knew i'd never find my way back to return it, they pointed me in the right direction home. Then, I cycled into town and met the girls and Ross at the ferry. They stayed here last night and we had some nice pasta and made chicken on the BBQ. Ed has been really obliging and says they can stay for a while until they find work. He also has another spare room in the basement that he has offered to them to live in, which is great because it's really cheap and the basement is amazing. There's three guys living down there at the moment who are working at the golf course caddying and they're very friendly and nice. 

The others are gone job hunting now so I'm just at home doing some practice. Going on a fishing trip later with people from The Jetties and The Even Keel. Should be fun! Poor fishies :(

Back to Hyannis in the morning to get my social security sorted out and buy some make up :D 

Will post up some photos tomorrow.

No sign of my little nephew/niece yet. Not long now, I imagine!

Me at Arno's Sidewalk Nantucket.net Live Cam! :D

Thank you, Brendan! :)

Some photos I took on my phone since I got here...

A boat I saw in Hyannis which made me giggle...yes, I am about five years old.

How much is that doggy in the window? :(

On the ferry...

Tried to take some photos leaving Hyannis but they didn't come out great... Here they are anyway. I think there's something on my lens? Coming in to Nantucket now. I can see it :)

About to go get the ferry...

Had some time to spare as social security office was closed (saturday...dose!) so i spent my time in the motel talking to Bren on skype :) It was fun fun. I took some screen shots...

Off to get the ferry now :) Hopefully I'll have internet access on the island.

Until then! x

In Hyannis...

Hiding in a motel room in Hyannis now while the others go and steal me some continental breakfast cos technically I'm 'not here'. Stayed here and extra night as I had some things to sort out for social security n stuff. Its been absolutely pissing rain but we're told it's supposed to get nice today. The view out the window isn't quite as promising though...

Going to sort out social security soon and then gonna get the ferry over to Nantucket. These two are enjoying the trip...

The night before the big day :)

In twenty-one hours I will be in Boston and getting ready for my bus trip to Hyannis. Staying the night with some people I know before purchasing a bike and a phone on friday and heading off on the ferry to Nantucket :) Wahey!

The nerves have kind of diminished now and I'm feeling a bit excited. My rucksack feels like there's a dead body in it but hopefully I won't be doing too much carrying anyway. 

Goodbyes are not fun, though :(

Camera hasn't arrived yet so no fancy photees for a while yet.

Until Nantucket...

Here's Bren and I enjoying our last week together in the sun :)
