Settling In.

Hey y'all,

We walked to town yesterday and today. There are so many little shops: world-famous brand name shops, distinctly British shops, and that little Polish shop where we bought sugar and cinnamon. There's also a farmers market on Wednesday through Saturday.



The farmers at the market hawk their produce, "Pound a pound, pound a pound! Get your carrots! Get your pineapples!"


St. Mary Butts, the church across from the farmers market.



The streets of Reading's shopping district are busy all day long.



It's strange to see the new shops in the old buildings.






We listened to the street preacher man as pigeons walked around and flew overhead.




Flowers are for sale everywhere. I guess the people crave color - the days are so short that the Sun hardly has a chance to shine here.



The Sausage Men selling the food that looked so warm.

Hey Sarah, it's your friend, Benjie. We were wondering how you liked it there and if everything was OK. Also, I wanted to say that your blog is colorful and informative.

Sarah,

I am enjoying your blog now that I have located it. Please keep updating as you have time so that those of us back in Louisiana know how the Vosburgs are faring.

I love the photos. They are wonderful. What an adventure God has sent you on.

We miss you, but are so thrilled that your family is getting the opportunity to see England and more.

Tell your family hello for me!
