Scotland


Hello Class,

Cici and I just got back from Scotland. It is a wonderful place and we had a great time traveling around Edinburgh. We went to a lot of different places. Edinburgh castle was Cici's favorite and Ms. Usrey like Greyfriars bobby. Before we left for Scotland we had a night to celebrate a famous poet and we both tried Haggis. It is yummy and made from some interesting things :) We then left on a tour bus to go to Scotland. It was a 7 hour trip but worth every single minute on the bus. We then got to Edinburgh and toured the city as the sun was setting it was really pretty. The next day is when we did all of our sightseeing. The castle was up first. We then went to a cathedral, a museum, greyfriars bobby, the North Sea, and Scott Monument. Enjoy looking at the pictures

Welcome to Scotland

Edinburgh Castle

St. Giles Cathedral
this is Greyfriars Bobby. This statue is tells the story of a dog who was very loyal to his owner. Legend says that when this dogs owner died, the dog stood guard over his owners grave every day and night until the dog passed away as well. A monument had been constructed to honor this very special dog. It was Ms. Usrey's favorite spot.

North Sea

Scott Monument

Cathedral in Durham


Love from Englan (well Scotland in this post)
Ms. Usrey and Cici
