As I'm sure some of you have heard, several of us (Esther, Amelda, Ashley and Josselyn) got a little sidetracked on our way to the country town of Bath and Avebury.
On the morning in question, we were stumbling out of Starbucks on our way to 43 Harrington Gardens, when the four of us were greeted by an American gentleman who asked us if we were 'going to Bath?' In response to his question we answered "Yes!" and in what only could have been a daze of heightened anticipation, the four of us proceeded to follow him onto these rather posh coach liners.
Delighted to see that the coaches taking us to Bath were in in fact parked on Gloucester Road, we jumped on board and settled in with the undergrads for a lovely snooze into the country. After the coach pulled away from the curb and heading out of the city, Josselyn (clever girl) decided to strike up a conversation with the young man next to her.
Low and behold, this boy had no idea about Boston University..in fact he and everyone else on the bus were from a completely different program!! As soon as we realized our mistake...it was too late! Trapped in a bit of a sticky situation, we decided to play it cool (i.e. sleep the whole time and deny everything) until we reached our final destination. Thankfully, 'alls well that ends well' and luckily because of Rachel's diplomatic styling we were able to blend back into the BU crowd without even being missed!
Moral of the story...when spending the wee hours of the morning at the Roof Top Gardens and then staggering down the street in a caffeine daze, don't talk to strangers!!
Cheers!
