for sarah's first day in derby we had coffee, breakfast and then went to the art centre here. she got a beautiful painting by a local artist. we even got shown to the back to meet a few artists and see where they come to paint. it was lovely. i wanted one but can't decide which yet. then we had pb&j sammies and felt very american. after that we walked into town where we visited the bra shop, the pet store, and sarah got her nails done. then we went to hash - a local (actually international too) running club. we met up at a friends house, started the marked run around the town and marsh (in the dark with false trails set up - sneaky) and then ended up at the hash halt for some liquor with coke and a lolly thrown in to sweeten the mix. went back and sang silly songs and drank terrible drinks. we had a wonderful dinner with great company and then scurried home, exhausted and collapsed into bed. what a day! more photos under the Derby 2011 album.
Hi again, you all - I wonder what Sarah thinks of your dinky town after visiting Cusco. I was thinking that compared to Derby, Cusco is a positive metropolis. Love the pix of Sarah under the Derby or bust sign - what an analogy for her difficulty getting to your waterlogged area! Love,Mom
