We Passed A City Named "Athole"!! - Hahahahaha

So today was very eventful. To start off my blog, I would like to say that I accomplished three goals today. First of all, I saw 8 men in kilts today!! YAY!!! hahaha. So, yes everyone, men do still wear kilts. Allltthhhouugghhhh, I found out that kilts are only worn on special occasions. Scottish men wear kilts when american men would normally wear suits. Interesting huh? My second goal I accomplished was for Brad's parents who were interested. They wanted to know if it was a myth that Scottish men do not wear underwear under their kilts. I DID find out the answer..... but don't worry!!! - I DID NOT FIND OUT FIRST HAND! haha. The woman who works at Perth College told me about the tradition of kilts and continued to tell me that indeed, they do NOT wear underwear. Hmmm.. but yes, if you re thinking as I did...... they do not flash anyone when their are strong winds. Haha. The material that it is made out of is very thick and does not flap up easily. That was a weird goal, but I indeed found that out today. My third goal was for my sister, I had to try a local beer. Yes, before you judge.... the drinking age is 18 here. So Julie, I had one for you. - It was delicious! I had it with my traditional fish n chips! (chips = fries, crisps = chips) .. *fun fact! =]

We toured many different beaches/ harbors today and did much traveling today. I am exhausted and I think I will be at blog time for most of this trip. I apologize now if it is not as detailed as you want it to be. =/ Free time is very limited here and when we do get it... we ALL WANT TO SLEEEEEPPPP!!! Haha.

Another fun fact * There is in fact about NO TRASH ON THE BEACHES. haha so we will be taking a trip to the recycling center soon. - for those of you who are just starting to read my blog now .... we are using recycled materials to build art projects. *

Christiana, our college director, did an American accent impersonation today..... apparently we sound like retarded men. Who knew?! hahaa. Great.

She also yelled "What the flip is that?!?" - and we all got a huge kick out of that. We are all going to start using that now. All ten of us are practicing our Scottish accents.... it's coming along quite well.

Well, I KNOW that there is way more to write about but I am so delirious for no sleep right now. I will keep posting but details may be few.... sorry!

Thanks for following and I miss you all!!!

Goodnight from across the ocean,

Natalie
