My vacation to Scotland

All right, I know it’s been a while. Let’s see if my memory hasn’t failed me yet.

The last time I wrote about my vacation I stopped short of our last leg in Edinburgh. Tuesday came and on we went to do some more touristy stuff.

I’m back at the bar and here comes the promised entry: As I told you in my last message, we’d arrived at our destination outside Edinburgh well and tired. Sunday night went by with BBQ and canned beer and everyone retired to their tents and sleeping bags around midnight.

I wanted to write about my vacation a long time ago. Nevertheless, some things came in between, namely exams. Still there is the need to get my impressions into text, if only for memory purposes.

I’m still alive, in case anyone’s been wondering, so don’t get your hopes up too soon.

Although, the weather sure has tried everything in its power to make it otherwise. Tonite was a bastard to sleep outside in a tent. Or at least, my sleeping bag is not made for these temperatures. Woke up at 7 a.m. because of serious frostbite alarms going up all over my body.

Anyway, Edinburgh’s great. The city really does beat London, even the food we had so far has far exceeded even my best hopes, greasy as it may be.

Today we’re planning to go up to the northernmost part of this island, should get some pretty pictures out of that.
Talking of pictures, I haven’t gotten around to downloading any of them off the camera yet. I’ll fix that when I get back home. There’s some really mind-boggling scenery around here.

It may not really the Devil but his food sure tastes and burns like there is some obvious family connection I`m missing here.

I arrived here all right for all those of you that care. England hasn`t changed much, still a lot cooler than the rest of Europe. Scotland`s freezing however. Think I already caught a cold, having arrived here only 12 or so hours ago.

I probably won`t be able to post any pictures here this week. Don`t worry, they`ll be there eventually.

So far,

-Jan
