This is my second post since I arrived back in the States. I spent a few days with my folks up in North Carolina. It was good to see them again. I felt a little bad for rushing away to Florida, but I've realised that I always feel weird when I leave them. So I've just had to get used to it.
I got to go see my small group from Discovery Church in Greenville, NC. If you live anywhere in NC, it is the church to go to. I've never experienced such community so quickly. I was gone for 3 months, but when I opened the door to the house where they were meeting everyone got so excited to see me and gave me great big hugs and where so happy for me to be there. They also had tons of questions for me, which was great. I like to talk about Scotland because I miss it so much. I really had a great time talking to them and seeing them again. I hate that I have to leave them so often. I really wish that I could go to that church, but I seemed to be called away by other things. I wonder if there is such a church here in Lakeland.
Well I'm not exactly in Lakeland right now. I was in Lakeland for about 2 hours and then I headed out to Tampa to hang out with my best mate, Cliff. I really miss this guy and he is one of the reasons that I'm here in Florida instead of Edinburgh, which I miss so severely.
It's very odd being here in Florida again. It's 9:30 and the sun has already been down for an hour. How Strange!! Also last night I was standing around with some of my mates eating ice cream and I started to itch on my legs. I didn't think anything of it and figured it would go away until it started to get worse. I went down to scratch and felt a small squished specimen under my finger. Mosquito. I had completely forgotten about them until I was being eaten by them. It was certainly not a good welcome back into town.
I have gotten tonnes of great and warm welcomes back into the city and I really appreciate that from my friends. It really helps when I'm in a place that I don't really to be.
This is all for now, I'll hopefully explain my trip down to florida in the next blog. talk to you soon folks.
Cheers
Ian
