After the bedlam of Hogmanay Jessica and I moved our American fanny's onward towards Glasgow and into the care of 3 very tall Scottish boys. I made some great friends, memories and even tried black pudding!
Hogwarts aka Glasgow University
Kelvingrove Art Gallery
Sweet organ in the foyer
Jek's gran created this awesome ceramic tower that's on display
My friend, Mr. Moose!
The gates of the necropolis...we visited a lot of cemetery's on this trip
Last Wednesday Jek took Jess and I on a roadtrip up past Loch Lomond and on to an idyllic little town called Oban. The scenic route was gorgeous, not to mention entertaining with Jess and I belting out Disney tunes. A whole new world anyone?
Oban
McCaig's Tower - Oban's personal Colosseum
Brilliant view from the tower
On our way back to Glasgow we stopped at the Drovers Inn for a refresher. This place was established in 1705 and has bore witness to some old stuff. Rob Roy MacGregor himself was even known to make some appearances. 300 years later travelers are still making pit stops here.
This is my sinister I'm a freak face. The Drovers Inn reminded me of the Prancing Pony in Lord of the Rings.

Volturi or just a hobbit? You decide.
Last night in Glasgow
Whelp this marks the end of my Scottish adventure...until next time :) On that note I will leave you all with this knee slapper I heard from a bonnie lad.
Hear about the skeleton that wore a kilt? It was Boney Prince Charlie.
or my personal favorite
On the fourth day God decided to make Scotland.
He said to the Archangel Gabriel, 'Today I'm going to create Scotland. I'm giving it wild majestic mountains, beautiful wildlife, I'm giving it crystal clear streams populated with trout and salmon, I'm giving it clean beaches and rich agricultural fields.'
Gabriel said, 'Aren't you being too generous to these Scots Lord?'
God replied, 'Don't worry Gabriel wait until you see the shite I'm giving them for neighbours.'
