Not naarmamo - back from my trip

Ah, it was a JOURNEY! 20 people on a bus, a bag full of food, my three good companions, a LONG bus ride from Prague accross Germany, Belgium to France, from Calais by ferry to Dover and to London. All day with my lovely English friend. Then a night in a hotel, in the morning fast to York, Durham,Scarborough, Glasgow (hotel again), Blair Athol, Loch Ness, Fort William, Glen Coe, Rannoch Moors - here rain, rain , rain - and cold! Stay with a lovely family, trips to Loch Lomond and Luss. Inverraray, Loch Katrin, The Trossachs. Then Culross, Loch Leven, Dunkeld (and BIRNAM, hahahaha), Scone and Stïrling. Left for Edinburgh - the whole day exploring the streets  - gorgeous, it was the Festival!!! But overnight by bus - aw,aw - to see Stratford, and a little longer in Oxford. Half dead to Folkestone and viä the Tunnel to Calais, in B+B hotel overnight, in 5 a.m. on our way back. Got stuck in a traffic jam in Germany (2 hours). At midnight here at home. Yupeeeee!!!!  I missed you, my friends!!!
! 
Here is our merry and naughty group. I am the first on the right.

That was slightly more of a trip than I and two college friend #s did in the summer after our final year. We only covered the lake district then from Glasgow up to Fort William covering most of what you did in that area then back down to North Wales(Llangollen). We were tired and we were only in our twenties and we didn't have the trek across Europe. It's nice to see you and your friends.
