Thin Roads and Big Glens

2004-09-23 | Glassgow and Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Today we woke up and I was super tired from staying up all night. We drove most of the day but we stopped by a hairy coo farm (got another good pic). At least they didn't smell this time. Driving today we went down these one lane roads that we barely fit in. I talked a lot about Denmark with my new friend Rosalina for a little. I learned some crazy things about how their government works. Their whole country is as left as they come and they pay like 60 percent taxes.

We went to the Wallace memorial as well today, that was alright. I wish I had gotten to see his sword, but that would have cost like 6 pounds. Another thing we did was see one of the most beautiful views in all of Scotland. It was at Rob Roy's grave up this huge glen. The view was just as good as on Skye. It was so relaxing.

When we got to Glassgow I said goodbye to all of my new friends and now I am here in Edinburgh. Tonight I

Off to Oban

2004-09-22 |Oban, United Kingdom This morning I waited for the 12 o'clock bus and ate breakfast somewhere other than the hostel. I also prepare a little surprise some of you will know about later.

We stopped by Eilean Donan Castke. This was a very amazing castle but I was disappointed it wasn't as old as it looks. The tour was boring.

After that I tried to make a sandwich while swerving in and out of the highland roads. I made a turkey sandwich with pita bread. but the worst thing about it was that I put this English mustard on it. Now, this just ruined my lunch. We also saw the castle that the final scene was shot in Monty Pythons Holy grail.

When I got into Oban I saw a to do list of things to do. I saw see STALKER CASTLE!! I was really excited. But come to find out it takes too long to get to. Sorry Kirt.

In Oban a ton of people from the macB tour went karaoking. I did two songs and my neck is a little soar from all the crazy rock dancing I do when I am up

Worlds greatest Island

2004-09-21 | Isle of Skye, United Kingdom

Last night I was reluctant of paying 18 pounds (36 bucks) for a day tour of Skye (because of the weather). This would of been a huge mistake if I would not have paid.

Our bus driver (Lou) was the best bus driver ever! So freaking hilarious. Our first stop was these hairy coos Scotland is so famous for. They smelled very grotesque but the view was magnificent. Then the most amazing thing happened. I could see a rain front come down a glen and then a full rainbow burst itself the width of the front. It was coming straight for us across the glen, then a second came on top of it. Once it hit us it was pure hail! It stopped a minute later and was the ABSOLUTE most beautiful thing I have ever seen (except Susan). All of what I saw today almost cant be described in words it was so beautiful. It was like in a movie and all of the scenery was from a fantasy world. Surely this is the most lush and fertile island on the whole

Good Scottish Weather

2004-09-20 | Inverness, United Kingdom

Today's weather was pure shit. The drive from Inverness wasn't very good at all. The driver had really bad jokes and just rambled. Luckily we only had him until noon with our jump on jump off tour of Scotland. On the way we stopped by a very beautiful waterfall. I thought it was funny how we were on this bridge at near capacity, so I got off.

Once we got to Kyle, the bus driver dropped us off in the worst rain and wind I have ever been in. My friend Gal was walking about and he freaked out a kid taking his driving test. The kid slammed on the brakes, which so happened to cause him to fail the test. Gal later found that out when he rode the same bus across the bridge to the Isle of Skye.

The bus driver dropped us off in the city across the way because the bridge is privately owned and it costs a bus 50 pounds to cross it!! It is ridiculous. Anyway, the whole day I relaxed in the hostel and spoke with

Relaxing Sunday in Inverness

2004-09-19 | Inverness, United Kingdom It was a boring day

Come to find out they booked me for an extra day here and I didn't know it and they also didn't have a bed for me to come to tonight in the Isle of Skye.



All I did was hang out on the Ness Islands with some new friends from, yet again, Israel. We had great conversation and also stopped by some flower display. We went to the Great glen which overlooks Inverness. It was a little disappointing, but oh well the view was decent.

The real thing I wanted to update you guys on was I have uploaded some pictures. The url is here. Now I cant make a nice navigation so you have to edit the last three digits to a valid number. 001 through 142. With the exception of 98, 99 100 and 143 which are videos and need to be typed in 098.avi . Anyway see you guys later.
