The Geography Department at the university invited our family over for “tea”. We (me and the kids) had never been to a tea so we weren’t sure what to expect. Matt said not to stress it would be very casual. It turned out to be just that. It was quite delightful actually. I had met Sonya, from the department but no one else. The entire department turned out, all were very kind and I could see why Matt had had a wonderful experience here.
The refreshments were wonderful as well, almost too pretty to eat (almost!)
We didn’t hold back though, I had to hurry and snatch these photos before it was all devoured.
We also got to see Matt’s office – I have to say it looks kind of drab but he pointed out that he hadn’t been here that long and didn’t bring any type of decorations with him. That’s true. I do like the color of his chairs. 
After the tea we thought we’d go over to the bookstore and buy a t-shirt or something since we’d be leaving on Monday. When we got there we didn’t actually see t-shirts but the pullover hoodies were $72. Really?? Needless to say, we didn’t pick any up. We really miss the prices we find in the States. We love this country, hate the cost of everything!
