After returning from a wonderful trip to London and Paris with the 3 most amazing women I know (to be further detailed later) I suddenly realized I have only weeks left here in Scotland!
Getting back into the swing of Parliament especially now that I've begun working on my paper (I have to write a 15-20 page report for the International Studies Program so that when I return they'll give me credit, yay!) and have started working on an extensive briefing on New Media for Anne.
However, there are 8 hours in a day and sometimes one just needs a break, like yesterday when I created the above piece of "art" on Paint. It's an interpretive view of the rest of the Parliament complex from my window, I'll take a picture of my actual view to show the contrast ;-)
Now, trying to do it all. Here is my current list of all the things I'd like to do before I go:
- Eat a Scottish Breakfast
- Climb Arthur's Seat
- Go to the waterfront in Leith
- Watch a sunset from Calton Hill
- Have a pie from the pie shop at the end of my street that never seems to be open
- Have fish and chips at The World's End
- Run through the Meadows
- Visit South Queensferry
- Go into a kilt-shop and buy a Ladies' kilt aka a skirt
- Go into St. Mary's Close
- Have a French Martini on George's Street
- Play/buy a Bodhran (Irish Drum)
- See a Pictish Stone
- Go whisky shopping
Now that may seem like quite the list but I believe its all totally doable! Or at least totally tryable!
Until I have tales from London and photos from Paris ready to go,
Cara
