Traveling Scotland!

Well I have arrived in Scotland, and I am so thrilled to be here. This country contimues to amaze me with its brilliant scenic views, friendly people, and beautiful cities. It took about 15 hours to get here (24 hours later), 3 flights total from San Antonio to Chicago, Chicago to Manchester, Manchester to Edinburgh. I arrived in Edinburgh just as the Yearly festival has been in full swing. There are so many people from all over here, and the city is vibrant with a wide variety of life. I also had an interesting time trying to get from the airport to the city centre. Currently I am on 5 day tour of the Scottish Highlands, and writing from a hostel in Pitlochry, Scotland. The people on the tour are so great. This afternoon we did some white water rafting down the Tummel River, and had an incredible time. Before that we were in the birthplace of Golf, St. Andrews, Scotland. A town you would see in a postcard, with an abundant supply of Golf shops around every corner. We even spent some time on the beach, and got to see the 18th hole of St. Andrews course where they film the Open each year. It feels weird seeing it after seeing it on TV. This has to be one of the most beautiful country sides I have ever seen. Tommorrow we head to Skye, to take a dip in ole Loch Ness. The big lake the had the mysterious Loch Ness monster. More later when I get a chance, and pictures soon when I get back.
