Ohhhh Kilts....hehe!

I said goodbye to Niclas this morning and his sister was so wonderfully nice to me and drove me to the airport :)
Flight went well....good old Ryanair fight for your life again lol.  But I still managed to wrangle myself my trusted window seat.
It was cloudy and grey when I left Sodertalje but above the clouds but blinding warm sunshine.  It was glorious!!
I'm amazed at how well I sleep on planes.  Both my siblings are terrible flyer's and usually have to hit the Atavan before take off.....me on the other hand am usually asleep before take off, no drugs involved haha.  I don't know what it is, as soon as the pressurize the cabin I'm out like a light.  This time I fought to stay awake to at least watch takeoff and say goodbye to Sweden.
And then zzzzzzzzzzzzz.
I woke up when we were ready to land.  Flying into Scotland was green and lush looking with lots of farmland and sheep.
Got through customs and found my way to the bus.
Had my first unfortunate and missed my stop (couldn't hear the guy) and ended up having to lug my stuff the farthest I have had to since my trip began.  Whooo eeee that was a workout!  Took me about 20 minutes to walk back to where I was supposed to get off.  With my 38 pound backpack and 13 pound day bag strapped to my body I was attracting attention...maybe it was trhe fact my calves were starting to burn and I was starting to sweat like crazy.  Most people are bundled up for the cold and me....I'm always WAY TO FRIKKEN HOT!  Gross.
Anyway I made it, checked in.  Made my way up many many stairs to the 3rd floor and found bed number 13 to call home for the next 3 days.  Wifi actually works in my 20 people mixed dorm room but it does tend to come and go.  No one else is here at the moment so I opened the windows, took off some layers and relaxed for a few minutes.  Once I'm done writing this I'll wander down to check out the rest of the many floored hostel and find something for dinner.  I think I'll lay low tonight and look up what to go see tomorrow.....walk tour, pub crawl, exploring.....oh the choices!
There's today's update.....talk soon xoxox

Oh and YAY I'm back in the world of English speaking folk....spell check works again!!
