Look Who's in Town!

President Obama is enjoying the awesomeness of Minneapolis!  This is actually Jamie's view from today's event, but Obama will be speaking tomorrow in our neighborhood -- a short walk away.  Sadly, I don't know that I will be able to see him in action since I have work, but part of me is hoping that all of my meetings will mysteriously get rescheduled in the next few hours.  

Despite living in Capitol Hill for several years, it feels more special knowing that the President is going to be so close now that we live in Minneapolis.

Isle of Skye to Glasgow.

Last full day in Scotland!  With our Scottish breakfast in our bellies, we started the journey from Isle of Skye to Glasgow.  We drove through scenic mountains and past Ben Nevis and stopped at Stirling Castle, our last castle of the trip.

And we got treated to a double rainbow over the William Wallace Monument...

Once we got into Glasgow, we tried to make it to the Cathedral in time but just missed it.

So we walked over to the Necropolis instead which turned out to be a pretty neat way to see Glasgow.

The next day, we were on our way back to the US and the next evening we were binge-watching Game of Thrones.  Scotland truly was a great destination for us and actually fit perfectly with what we were hoping to get in our 9 days.  All-in-all, a perfect vacation.
