Edinburgh, Scotland


One of the perks of Aaron's job is that he gets a ton of frequent flyer miles. (That's what happens when you fly all over the world for 80% of the time.) He is currently in Cebu, Philippines again and comes home on the 30th. Then, he's home for a week and leaves for Edinburgh, Scotland.... so, Sophie and I decided to go with him! Yay!! It'll be all of our first times in Europe. Aaron, undoubtably, will be there a lot more, but I'm excited to be able to go with him this time. After deciding to go, I was so excited and mentioned it to my mom... who decided to come too! So, now my mom and dad are also coming with us. I'm really excited as now I will have someone to do stuff with during the day while Aaron is at work. (Hmm, and maybe we'll have a babysitter for one or two date nights in Scotland... shall we say valentine's day?)

We'll be there for just under 2 weeks. February is not the best time to visit Scotland, so I've heard, but it may be my only chance to go for free, so who cares! :) The picture above is of Edinburgh Castle which is definitely one of the first things on our list. I'm so excited to go!

That's awesome! I'm so jealous. I'm sure even if it's not the best time to go, you'll still have a wonderful time.

How FUN! Hope you have a good time, even though it will be cold. Do your parents and Sophie already have passports? Take LOTS of pictures - you never know when (or if) you'll be back. =)

Yeah, we all have our passports. Aaron, Sophie and I got ours when Aaron first switched jobs in May. My parents have had theirs for a couple of years, although they haven't used them. I'm a picture fanatic, so there will be LOTS to post when we get back :)

That's awesome you're going to Europe! I know you'll have lots of fun. Remeber, it's okay to keep your days busy and just get out and do everything you want to, because you can always sleep when you get home! I hope you have tons of fun!
