Hey everyone, just wanted to let you all know I made it here safely yesterday at around 10am Scotland time about 2am AZ time. The flight over was actually pretty quick and I ended up having an empty seat next to me on the flight, so I was able to sprawl out and sleep a little. You gotta love sleep, we had about 7 hours until the plane landed in London and when I woke up, there was about an hour remaining. I walked about 9 miles yesterday and was absolutely exhausted near the end. The weather is great here, was about 59 degrees when the plane landed and by the time I arrived at the bed and breakfast, is was nice and sunny outside. However, just when I thought it was going to be nice and sunny all day, it began to rain. Then, 10 min later, the sun came out again, and then 10 min after that it began to rain again. You get the idea. I am in my closet right now (really, the room I am in is so tiny, there is a bed and a sink and about a 6ft x 4ft space to walk around in. Whatever though, it gets the job done. In the end, all I care about is if I have a bed to sleep in, not the size of the room. I had dinner with the family I will be staying with in August. The lady's name is Daphne and she had her two sons and two women from California for dinner. We had a homemade Haggis dinner and is was so good. I walked past the University of Edinburgh building yesterday, not sure if it is the one I will need to go to, I don't think it is because there were a bunch of signs for the school of law. The building is pretty neat though, so old and medieval looking. I stopped at the phone store yesterday and I have to have a bank account here in order to get a cell phone. So I am heading to the bank today to set up an account for here and then hopefully I will have a cell phone in a few weeks. I took a few photos with my camera phone yesterday, I didn't feel like carrying around the Nikon, so here they are. Hope everyone is doing good and I will talk to you all later!
