Scotland was fantastic. I really enjoyed it and thought it was beyond gorgeous, even though the weather was absolutely atrocious to my Floridian self.
Like I said, when we arrived on Friday the weather was terrible, but a group of us decided to venture out into Edinburgh to shop around a little bit and grab some dinner. We stopped in a couple of stores and window shopped mostly since everything closed relatively early. We then decided to grab a bite to eat. I thought I was all cool since I was carrying an umbrella and many others weren't, but I soon found out why no one else did. The wind kept blowing my umbrella this way and that way, turning it inside out. Instead of looking cute and dry with my umbrella, I looked like an idiot getting wet because my umbrella was inside out and not exactly serving its purpose. Everyone was wet, frustrated and starving so we finally stopped at The Filling Station, the first place with food and empty seats....and the most American restaurant in Edinburgh, me thinks. I had some delicious pasta and an even better Long Island Iced Tea.
After our exhausting hunt for dinner, we headed back to the hotel and rested.
& then the party started.
We headed to Espionage, a five-story club.
The people there were very interesting dancers, to say the least, but the club played great music. It was fun for our first night in Edinburgh..
