Edinburgh (Jan. 23)

Once upon a time (about two weeks ago) a group of hooligans (Myself, Abbey, Julie, Johannes, Eric, Julia, and Emily) all got together and decided to embark on an adventure to the beautiful city of Edinburgh. They climbed some pretty steep hills, slept across the street from a castle, searched for the only food available at 3am where Abbey got called a maple leaf, and had some ice cream along the way. Because of procrastination, I am only able to share their story now- two weeks late. Here is the photo evidence of this journey. Don’t worry, we made it back alive, safe and sound (I promise mom!).

Brewdogs. Good beer, good people, good times.

So much excitement in one photo.

The University of Edinburgh. Such a pretty place. It felt like we were in a fairy tale.

Still doing cool poses. Emily is leading the group in the right direction. Eric has a stick that he found and fought a beast (dog) for. Julie is reaching for the stars. Abbey is leading the group left.

The wind at the top of these hills was insane.

Always pondering the important questions in life. For example in this photo everyone was probably thinking about how cool it would be to actually be to be a wizard like Harry Potter.

A few of us were in the beetle room. I was in the bunk called ‘Stink’. I thought that was bad, but Eric was in the bunk called ‘Dung’.

Yup. We climbed those. Nature is cool.

When you need to get your owl before the first day of school at Hogwarts and you find your soul owl right away.

Overall, the weekend was a success and a ton of fun. I am definitely looking forward to returning during the term.

Until next time,
