I'm just starting to settle into my new home. The family is very nice and they have taken me in as if I was one of their own. When I got here Saturday I slept all day and then I slept most of the day Sunday. I had never experienced jet lag before and it's quite bad, it almost feels as if you are drunk.
Monday was my first day with the children alone. Needless to say it was a testing day. I was still disoriented and the children wanted to test me to see what they could get away with. I will admit, I cried.. a couple of times.Tuesday was much better. We ventured to the park and to the "sweetie" shop and had ice cream.
The neighborhood that I live in is called Eastbourne and it's traditional. All of the houses are huge and old and they are mostly inhabited by older people. However when I was out today I saw a lot more young people and families with children.
I had today off so I went into town and did some sightseeing. I went out to the Eastbourne Peir which is a victorian peir and has been around since 1870. The view was breathtaking, and you got a view of the city around you and of the rolling downs, which give Eastbourne is fantastic weather. It has been sunny here since I arrived and it supposedly it stays like this most of the spring and summer except for the occasional rain.
