We are here, we are here, we are here!

Well, after hours of flying we have finally touched down in Edinburgh and arrived at Pollock Hall, where I have moved into my lovely single room! The campus here at the University is stunning- and I have an awesome view of Arthur's Seat, a giant hill, from my bedroom window. The shower proved to be today's biggest challenge so far- it seemed I could only get high powered cold water, or a leaky faucet of hot water. Also, my laptop won't start up and so I'm a bit worried about that (thank goodness for smartphones or this blog would be donezo) but alas I am here in (sunny- momentarily) Scotland! They weren't kidding about bi-polar weather, we arrived to a nice breezy partly sunny airport, lugged our bags to our room in rain, and now it's hot and sunny again! Hoping it stays nice like this for the rest of the day, we're going to explore a bit and find a good restaurant near by for Brian's birthday dinner! It's refreshing to beat the Maryland heat for a bit... And note to mom- I successfully rolled my two giant bags while carrying a super heavy backpack with no complaints ;)

Til next time!
