Celebrate Good Times, Come On!

Hey everybody!

Today, as many of you might have realised, is our last full day in Edinburgh. It's a sentimental time for me and Stuart, but above all, it's a celebration of the fact that by this time tomorrow, we'll be in Lawn-dawn once again.

But coincidentally, it was also an AWESOME day! Here's a brief description of all the awesome things that happened to happen on our last day in Edinburgh:

1) IT RAINED! Yes, even awesome days have rain in Scotland.

2) We paid too much for postage! Yes, even on awesome days, the Post Office wants to fuck you. Still, it means we no longer have to carry a bunch of useless shit around.

3) We were tourists! We went into EVERY tourist shop on the Royal Mile and bought a bunch of cool stuff (some of you can expect postcards very soon... :-)!!)

4) We unloaded our worldly possessions! We gave our clothes to charity, being the absolute saints that we are. What did you do today? Shop at Gap? Pah!

4) We met some Canadians! Walking the Princes Street Gardens we saw some Canadians and went out for drinks with them.

5) We met some Kingstonians! Yes, those very Canadians happened to be from Kingston! What a coincidence!

6) We met some Kingstonians who hate Kingston! This isn't that surprising...everyone hates Kingston.

7) We finally found a host in Amsterdam! That's right, a really cool guy in Amsterdam decided to let us surf his couch for a couple nights, which couldn't be more awesome! You might get to meet him in an upcoming video!

So, all in all, we're feeling pretty good. And we decided to channel this good energy into a night of celebration, and give the old city of Edinburgh the send off it deserves...a drunken one.

Celebrate good times, come on,

John from Canada

Remind me to show you the photos of John that I found where he is forcing a smile. It's gruesome...painful...yet, oddly moving...
Go see UP.

Hey! Wait a minute...there are some people who love Kingston, but then again I'm not a true Kingstonian. I've lived in many different towns across Canada and also lived in Melbourne, Australia and can truly appreciate K-town's charm. Your feelings may or may not change after your travels but you can sure have fun finding out. Chu Chu Thunder woo woooo!!! Looking forward to your next post.
