I'm going to Scotland! I was thinking about it all day so I I looked up how much it was going to cost just to get an idea, and it's cheap. I've seen Grandma and Grandpa pay more for dirt than what the flight cost. So I did. I'm going during Easter week: April 9th-13th. We don't have classes that week. I booked a hostel too. Really exciting. The hostel advertises a free day tour of the city and also a not-free day tour of the highlands. I really want to do that one. The Scottish Highlands...I can't even imagine. I'm not doing the Underground though. You couldn't pay me to. I'm not going anywhere I've seen the Ghost Adventurers go.
Next month or maybe in May, the International Society is planning a trip to Liverpool. That would be awesome too. They haven't said how much it's going to be, but if it's reasonable I'll be there.
The damn residence office keeps sending me emails about rent. I'm getting annoyed. I'm paid up to the middle of May, so they are just going to have to wait for the rest of it and there's nothing they can do about it. They only have to wait until the first week of April. I hope anyway, if the financial aid office at Central has their shit together this time around. As soon as that comes in I'm paying the rest of my rent, buying a ticket home, and booking my Prague trip.
We have a "study break" in two weeks. I'm thinking that can be my time to head north. Belfast--which Rick Steves said is safer than most US cities and for sure the safest city in the UK fyi--Derry, the Giant's Causeway and Dunluce Castle. We'll see though. I think I've been impulsive enough for today.
What city in Scotland?! You have to go to Belfast-it's so close!
ReplyDeleteEdinburgh! And I will for sure after next month.
DeleteScottish Highlands, Liverpool, Prague and Belfast...i'm on it!!! More places to research, this vicarious travelling is cool and will have to do for now :) ps, stay away from ghosts!!
ReplyDeleteI realized I'm not doing Liverpool 'cause that's when I planned Edinburgh. The only thing I know about Liverpool is the Beatles were from there haha
