Then it was back on the bus and we were headed off to the Glamis Palace, the childhood home of the Queen Mother. It was nice but the most interesting part was getting to see the Highland cattle. They are cute “little” things and very soft. Then it was back onto the bus and this time we headed to Aberdeen. Another couple, who are actually from Herdon near where I live, and I ended up going to a local Starbucks and chatting while having a cuppa. It was a good time. Then it was back onto the bus and we headed up the hill and slightly out of the city to our hotel.
Dinner was at seven and by then I was struggling so very badly. The gentleman that decided to sit with us loves to complain and when he complains I think everyone else figures they should to. So not only was he complaining but my Grandmum and the other woman sitting with us were as well. I was so frustrated and bored. Lucky for me the Celtic FC and Manchester United were playing right next door in the bar so I grabbed a beer and sat down with the Tour Guide to watch the game. It was great. It was kinda nice to have someone “closer” in age than 60 years difference to talk to. The game was good but Celtic lost by one which isn’t bad when you consider the score was 3-2. Manchester was expected to roll right over the top of Celtic. Then it was into the lobby for me and I have spent the last couple of hours online trying to find things to do and people to talk to.
And here are pictures from today…
again a problem downloading pics but there are a bunch on my xanga site. www.xanga.com/ChristsChild

JoyAnna, Thank you for "taking" me on your trip with you! I love hearing about your travels and seeing the pics (you know me and pics!!) : )
Oh, and I'm praying you can get some sleep!
Very Nice. Scotland looks beautiful. Too bad we couldn't come with. :(
And don't worry about the rain, its suppose to rain here for the next 3 days. Although I like rain, personally, I just don't know how I'll get to lab. I should build a tent around me and my bike. Ha ha ha.
Much <3.
