Spring Break - Cuid dó

(That's Gaelic for Part Two)

I've been meaning to get to this post for a while now but as usual, life has gotten in the way. In other words, I've been lazy, and then I had visitors for a while, so I'm just now sitting down to think about the 2 weeks I spent in Scotland with my parents. As I'm sure anyone who reads this doesn't actually care that much about what exactly we all did, I won't bother regaling you with a day by day recap. Instead, just a few points of summary:

- Sheep are AWESOME. As are lambs. Unfortunately, they are rather skittish and do not like being approached.
- My dad kicks ass at picking hotels. Seriously.
- People at American consulates are not very nice.
- Scotland has good food!
- Scotland is also cold. Seriously. It snowed when we were in Edinburgh. On April 20th. Not cool.
- Highland cows (aka coos) are also awesome. And shaggy.
- It gets WINDY on the Isle of Skye.
- It also gets BEAUTIFUL.
