Culture shock?

This is my first post to my new blog, so bear with me. I'm here in England now, specifically East Anglia, county of Suffolk, in a suburb of Ipswich called Shotley Gate. It's right on the coast, about 100 miles northeast of London. Suffolk supposedly has the least precipitation in all of Great Britain and after the rain I experienced today, I can see how that fact would make it appealing to live here.

More to come when I can take a breath; right now I'm still fighting jetlag by trying to go to bed at a reasonable time (almost 1am here and I'm wide awake...)
