Hello and sorry for the long wait for a blog! I just returned from a 2-day Edinburgh Fringe Festival trip and it was quite the experience!
To start off on only a few hours sleep we decided to make a pit stop at Starbucks for a bit of a caffeine rush. I'm not a coffee drinker so I decided to ask Scott to get me a chai latte. He missed the 'chai' part and returned with a latte! I have never liked coffee and have never even liked the smell of it. I decided to give it a try and I was pretty surprised because I did take a liking to it! I was shocked myself and am hoping I am one that doesn't become a latte junkie!
The festival was brilliant! Katie, Scott and I were able to see a comedy act, a hypnosis show and a music show. The music show today wasn't the best as it was based on blues music but the tickets were free so we gave it a go. I was trying not to fall asleep but was woken up when I was an audience member who was dragged up on stage to learn some dancing moves. My hips weren't moving as well as others as I did have a few beer yesterday and I was only on about 8 hours of sleep frpm the past 2 days! It was entertaining to the audience though.
I am running short on time so I won't be able to upload any photos today. I will definately get a chance to do it soon though because I am down to 6 working days!! I am very excited to say that Katie and I have bought a trip to Mallorca, Spain and we leave next Thursday, August 30 at 08:00! We will be soaking in the sun with our cold drinks beside us as we laze on the beach and get a nice tan! Here in Scotland it's not possible so I am very excited!
I will write again soon! Now my travels begin next Thursday with my mother flying over the week to follow. Then two weeks after that I am off to France for Canada games in the Men's Riugby World Cup, then to Switzerland, Austria, Germany for Oktoberfest (and I am happy to say that I bought a nice t-shirt with a perfect theme to go with Oktoberfest), through Belgium and to Amsterdam! Everything is pretty much booked and I am ready for the adventure!
Take care everyone and I will update again soon with some more recent photos and such!
