While we are now in Greece, I thought I still might write a few words on my visit to Scotland. Firstly, the country is decidedly beautiful, the language colorful, the people friendly, and the water freezing (see below for details). Jane's family was both accomodating, funny, and adventurous and showed me the best and the brightest (the sun is out until past midnight!) during my stay.
Jane has done a pretty good job of covering the events that ensued, and has also continued her efforst into our Grecian travels. I have to catch up, so I will simply mention some of the delicacies that I consumed in Scotland as an indication of the near week's events:
Within the category of food:
Fish Pie, fish and chips, Scottish rolls, haggis, white pudding, mushy peas, nougat (two scoops of ice cream squished between two pieces of wafer, one with marshmallow (nougat) inside), sticky toffee pudding, Dairy milk, neeps and tatties, Caramac, Choozies, Bacon Buttery, and of course Skips.
Within the category of drink:
Squash, Deuchars, Belhaven, a local brew from Glasgow called Ubiquitous Chip (I think), IRN BRU, and the cold, North Sea waters.

Did you do anything but eat and booze it up?
