Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
-Mark Twain


Day two in England is just about over and I can say with certainty that this is going to be one amazing experience. Let me start from the beginning.
So on Wednesday I boarded a plane bound for Manchester. I honestly couldn't believe that I was finally sitting on this plane headed to England. When we finally landed (without any sleep) I had so many emotions running through me. I was excited, scared, and nervous all at the same time. I met up with my group and we headed back to the university. One thing I can say is that it's really green here and two its awkward being on the otherwise of the road. We did a tour of the university and of ormskirk. I even met a group of locals that showed us a great time. We started out the night heading to a local pub where we all ordered our first drink in England. We had such an amazing night and even sang bohemian rhapsody in unison.
If there is one thing I can say about the locals, it is that they are the nicest people. The people we were with made sure that the Americans got home safely. More stories to follow!
