Edinburgh Adventure

EDINBURGH



After 17 (total) hours on a coach I have decided that I will never again (unless there is a threat of death) take a coach.
However,
Edinburgh was so very worth the coach from hell.
Apart from the fact that landscape is some of the most gorgeous I've ever seen, the Hairy Coos (Hairy Cows) stole my heart.
Hamish the Famous Hairy Coo is possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen. A bit smelly but its adorable face and ginger locks make up for it.

I also would like to take this time to say that large crowds in Seattle don't even compare to the insanity that was the Fringe Festival this weekend. Everything I had planned on seeing was completely sold out and we could barely maneuver through the streets on Sunday. I will say though it was still something that was worth experiencing.
Loch Ness, you ask? Been there seen that, swam with Nessie. No big deal.

Ghosts, you ask? Went to a graveyard (the most haunted graveyard in the world), probably was followed by one. I think it was because it wanted a bite of my delicious falafel but who knows.
Red heads, you ask? Not as many. More than usual but I was unimpressed. I will say for the record red head babies by FAR the cutest I've seen.
Kilts, you ask? Oh, yes. Along with the bag pipes.

Overall I would rate this trip a success.

(will add pictures when I get a chance)

GIMME YOUR ADDRESS!

I want to send postcards. PLEASE give me your address!

Went to Peter Pan in Kensington Garden



This is Jonathan Hyde as Cpt. Hook. It blew my mind! For those of you unfamiliar with the name he was the hunter on Jumanji, he was in Titanic, and (my personal favorite) he was the butler in Richie Rich. Anywho, he made a fantastic Cpt. Hook and the play over all was epic. I've never seen Peter Pan before so I felt a connection to the billions of six year old children who were peeing their pants in excitment everytime Peter flew. Also, the part in the play where everyone in the audience was supposed to shout "I do believe in Fairies!"... I'm pretty sure I was the loudest. Take that british children.
Also, not to be a perv or anything, but I was completely distracted by the beautiful man that played Peter Pan. Yowzah.
