Scotland

Well our Scotland trip was an exciting adventure. We took off from the MSP airport at 7:00 P.M. on Monday the 12th. I didn't really get any sleep on the plane, which meant that I went way over a day without sleeping! I was pretty tired when we arrived in Inverness, which was at about 5:00 P.M.

As for the curling, our team did pretty ok. We played pretty well in the beginning, which allowed us to qualify for the quarterfinals. We lost in the quarters though, so that was kind of disappointing.

As for the travel experience, Scotland was amazing. We got to see a bunch of different things. We did a lot of shopping in the city center, which was located close to where we were staying. We walked everywhere. I think we put on about 15 miles of walking during the trip!!! There was a river that traveled right through the middle of the town, which had lots of shops and restaurants located on it. Everything was so expensive because of how weak the dollar was. The pound was worth double our dollar. Other than that, we got to see Loch Ness, which was pretty amazing. I didn't see the monster, but it was still a fun experience.

With Thanksgiving over, the semester is getting close to the end. Lots of homework is coming up!
