Haggis Adventures 3-day Skye High Trip – Day 2

“NORWAAAAAAY!”

Day two! The liquid sunshine disappeared and left us with some real sun and nice temperatures. We left the hostel and Loch Ness early in the morning, heading for the Isle of Skye! We were told that Skye most likely would be a rather cold and misty experience, but to our big surprise (and the guide who couldn’t stop saying “oh my god, a very, very nice day indeed”) instead of fog and cold we were met with sunshine and warmth! Hurray!

We stopped in a tiny town for lunch, and me and my sunshine went on our own walk discovering this old tower of some sort with the most amazing view. A perfect place to act like the Vikings we are and scream “Norwaaay”!

A trip to Leith for a pint of Guinness

This Saturday I went to Leith to finally fulfill my promise: drink my first Guinness while wearing the weird, orange earring I got as a gift earlier this summer.

My sunshine and I got on a bus which 30 min later dropped us off in Leith, a surprisingly short trip with a lot of beautiful buildings to capture with my camera on the way. We still look like tourists whenever we go outside, looking more up pointing at all the buildings than checking if we walk on red lights. It’s a miracle that we haven’t been hit by a car yet.

Have to say, the Guinness tastes just as bad as every other beer I’ve ever tasted. I survived long enough to get a picture taken before I gave the beer away to my sunshine while enjoying some red wine myself. All in all a great day.

Edinburgh, here I come

“Congratulations.
This email confirms your place at The University of Edinburgh for the Biological Sciences (Zoology).
Your course starts in September 2012.”

I have no words… Just so relieved. Finally!!!

People are always asking me if I know Tyler Durden

My sunshine gave me a book this winter, which name I can’t share, cause I would be breaking the first rule.
Any guesses?

Managed to dig up my old photoshop elements from the bookshelf, don’t think it will be enough, I miss photoshop CS5.
Today my sunshine and I are planning a trip to the zoo! Fun!

Anja 21!

A few pictures from the surprise party I threw for Anja.
They got a little delayed, my sunshine arrived on tuesday, and I’ve been working and spending time with him the last couple of days.

The pictures are few, and they are badly edited. All of a sudden, my not-so-much-legally-downloaded-photoshop crashed and burned, leaving me without any program to edit my pictures in. Guess I’ll have to buy…(download) photoshop again.
