Hello From Scotland

After a long flight to Edinburgh (with an adventure at customs, which an agent held Brittany back at the border for... silly reasons??). Eventually, it got to the point where the agent called Chris and we ended up almost missing our connection. The British Asian connection guy was really nice and called the airplane for us, and despite the fact that the flight was held back a bit we made it to Edinburgh on time.
We didn't sleep much, but went right into things once we checked in with Chris and Cheri. We walked around Edinburgh and got handed a million flyers. The street performers are NUTS. A man in a thong juggled machetes. There also seems to be a trend for street performers to heckle people as part of their skits.
We watched a very strange play about the author of Alice in Wonderland last night, where the actors were two feet away from us. They involved us in the adventures of "Outland," and the actress brought to whole group to tears of laughter when she involved Evan (who had a pretty big role!). Today I have to get some mundane things done, but later we'll be watching One Man Star Wars in a giant plastic cow!
