Safely settled in Scotland!


Mary, Sean and Kirk by the Lily Pad Pond


Mary in the Fern House

After about 30 hours of traveling, we are safely installed in our hotel in Edinburgh.  As planned, we toured the Royal Botanical Gardens (half a block from our hotel) to help us stay awake.  It was a pleasant diversion regardless of the rain.  There were many "glass houses", one in particular that had many native California plants in it.  We all commented on how it smelled like California in there.  We're not sure about our plans for tomorrow yet, all we can think about is getting some rest.  We'll let you know what transpires!

Glad to see you all made it safely, however jet lagged. Mike is hoping that once you all revive that Kirk will give us a "Beers of the UK" tasting review throughout your travels :-). We are eager to hear of all your adventures. Keep 'em comin'!! Our little eye balls are watching you on Google Earth and your blog.

Lots of love to you all and have an amazing time,
Mike & Beth
