This morning Lyssa, Mikelle, Ashley, Sarah, Annie, Emma, and I took the train to Kent to meet President Chittock and his family. President Chittock is the stake president and every semester he takes students on this 10 mile walk through the English countryside. He usually does a fireside about growing up in war time London but sadly our schedules conflict so he won't be able to come; however, he and his brothers told Sarah and me a little about it today. I loved hearing their stories about how they were taken away to Wales during the WWII to escape the bombing.
It was cold but worth it to get out of the city and the crowded house; and the views were breathtaking. I loved talking to the Chittocks and hearing one of the elderly brothers teasingly tell Sarah to "shut up" after she offered to push him on the zip wire (as they call it here).
