Are we there yet?

Last day of our roadtrip and it was onward to Aberdeen. As usual, another 2 hour drive to get there. I think I would like Aberdeen better as a city than Edinburgh. The streets are wider and let in more sunlight. Better shopping...I miss Austin, sigh. However, not as much green and I like green (again, Austin has spoiled me). I did enjoy the mall is pretty swanky though. Upscale deli/eateries and they have a dish/leftover system where the people compost the leftovers and clean up after you. Ok, that makes me sound lazy but it's quite different than the states.




Cristina detoured to the tourist route. The highway follows the coastline getting some pretty awesome shots of sea. Our last photo opportunity brought us to an awe-inspiring sunset on the North Sea. The North Sea is a definite take-no-prisoners guy.

Remember the scene in "The Little Mermaid" where Eric's ship gets shipwrecked? Yep, good. It was exactly like that!! Minus the fact that I wasn't an awesome mer-princess with long flowing hair and a voice that makes angels jealous...The angry North Sea!!

Made it back home completely exhausted, but I can't wait for another adventure!!
