Happy New Year!!

Hello everyone! We hope you all have had a happy new year! Here in Scotland we started the night off with a house party and then headed out to the Edinburgh street party. Sadly due to inclement weather, which ironically improved dramatically about an hour before midnight, the party got canceled so we found ourselves wandering around the streets with no party! Instead we wandered up to the castle and enjoyed a bit of bag pipe music and general revelry until the fireworks went off at midnight. Then back to our house for some champagne with our friend Sean.

Some umbrella carnage at the Royal Mile. A common sight after a windy day! New Years we had driving rains and more than 30 mile/hr wind!

















Hanging out up at the castle. We weren't the only ones catching a view from up there.
