Long time no post, my deepest apologizes to all, especially Jake Rassat. On January 24th I arrived safe and sound at Frankfurt International Airport. After some mild mis-communication, which resulted in me being briefly stranded at the airport, I weathered the difficult and exhausting journey to my grandmothers house in Buechenberg, Germany. Check out the pictures below, the weather was quite nice in January. For all you tree huggers out there, be sure to check out the use of solar panels in a small rural german farming village, if they have enough sense to use them, shouldn't we?!
I have previously visited Robbie in the summer of 2007, yet had not been back to see him or his family since. Returning to Edinburgh was a joy and felt like home. The architecture, people, and general energy is amazing. I stayed in Edinburgh for a little over a week and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. In stark contrast to my last visit, I ate well and worked out almost everyday. One of my favorite highlights was running Arthur's Seat a few mornings during the course of my stay. The large foot hill positioned in the center of Edinburgh is something out of a fairytale - massive, imposing, with misted blanketing its peak. Unfortunately, due to the winter weather, I was unable to hike the mini-mountain this time around.
Another highlight of my stay was my visit to St. Andrews. The University is Scotland's best and one of the most prestigious in Great Britain....
All in all, my stay in Edinburgh was a blast, too many memories to relate and good stories to retell.
xoxo,

Nice to know you're alive and well. Amazing photos, too. Is it going to take as much time for the next instalment? Eh, you know I'm only kidding.
