Delirious with lack of sleep and adrenaline-filled with anticipation, that was me as I stepped off of the plane and into Scotland. While I was not altogether thrown into a magical place that made me feel different inside every inch of me, I was enchanted. Perhaps I am still affected by those whimsical ideas we have in our youth of going to a new place and expecting to find a new magical kingdom. I expected heavier accents and strange, archaic buildings.
However, I noticed how dark green everything seemed, the quick paced movement of city life and refreshing feeling of being far away from home. I was impressed at how well we navigated as a group of around 8 with large, heavy suitcases.
I noticed that advertising here is very different-- not so sexualized perhaps?
I felt an adventure coming on, maybe not a Peter Pan adventure, but something new.
