Last Post from Deutschland

I spent my last day, evening and morning in Germany within the last 24 hours. I sang at a Weihnachts Party and earned a little moolah :), had a lovely dinner with my dear Kai at our favorite place, Casita Mexicana, and spent the night with the Diederichsen family in Lohausen. This morning we had a lovely German breakfast with the works, Brötchen, Leberwurst, Fleisch und Kase und leckere gekochte Eier.

THEN. ADELE AND I WENT TO LONDON. It is so strange hearing English here! I even bumped into someone and said "Entschuldigung!" (Excuse Me), and the person just looked at me like I was crazy! I am just having the impulse to respond to things in German, it's really strange.

Anyways, had an audition this afternoon at the Royal Academy of Music...it went well, could have been better, as always. But I'm glad I did it, and then afterwards I had a MASSIVE delicious beer and a burger in Covent Garden with Adele and her friends Greg and Jeremy. What a treat! I just absolutely love this city, I am so enchanted by EVERYTHING....the streets, buildings, people watching, etc. I would love to live here someday, but I know it's going to be difficult. Who knows. Maybe I'll get to spend time here somehow. I am feeling so torn about coming home....I am so thankful for this year, but I somehow feel like a failure for having to come home and recharge before the next adventure, but I suppose that's normal.

Well, it's been great writing this blog....I hope all who have read have enjoyed. Looking forward to the next adventue....
