more on the land of kilts

Seriously, sometimes I want to kill blogger, because it is so annoying to work with. The above photos are from Dunnottar castle (pronounced dun-NOT-ter, not DUN-uh-tar), which, as you can see in the last photo, we stormed two days ago. It was awesome!

England has about a million varieties of really, really good chocolate. One of them is called a Yorkie, and according to Alex there was a rugby (I think?) player with the last name Yorkie who really liked chocolate, but everyone on the team made fun of him, because they thought it was girlie. So Nestle came up with the Yorkie bar, a masculine chocolate bar with the tag line "It's not for girls!" The above photo is me, Chelsie, and Shannon snacking on one before our show a couple nights ago.

Oh Nestle, we beg to differ.

a day in which i storm a castle and eat sheep innards

Greetings from Scotland!

I love, love, love, love, love this country. Why? Because during the short time we've been here I've had:

salad dressing (England does not believe in salad dressing, plain salad tastes like yuck)

beautiful weather (no rain!)

castle seeing!

paper towels (England is too "green" and therefore only ever has hand driers or nothing at all in bathrooms)

Yesterday I ate haggis.

Let me repeat that. I ate haggis.

Haggis is a mix of sheep organs boiled in a sheep's stomach. Mmmmm. It was actually pretty good! Kind of spicy, kind of meatloaf-like. I couldn't get the mental image out of my head though of what it was exactly I was eating...and it looked super nasty. 

But now I feel all Scottish and cultured!!

And let me tell you how freaking sick and tired I am of slow upload speeds. They make sharing photos with all of you uber painful. So no photos for now, but let me tell ya, I've got some good ones.

Oh! And tonight's the world cup game US v. England! We had to move our show to an earlier time, because no one wanted to come during the game, haha. Football is HUGE. And I really hope that America wins. And so do the Scottish, because they hate England. Funny.

Cheers!
