Returning Home

It's been real. It's been fun. It's even been real fun.
**
I am so ready to see Texas.
**
I have a lot of pictures from Bath and the last few days, but I'm running out of time, so I'll have to post them once I'm back on the other side of the Atlantic.

I've been so incredibly lucky to be here, and it's been an experience I won't forget. Our oral reports from this week have been evident as to what we will bring home with us: Set the standard. New ideas. New relationships. Excellence. Passion. Confidence. Always try for something beautiful and epic, even if you fail.
**
But however beautiful and exciting and awesome London has been, I'm ready to leave. It's time.

The weary traveller returning home."
