Last weekend, I spent three days in Scotland visiting Shona, my forever-young and wonderful babysitter! When I arrived, there were fields beyond fields of sheep and as I exited the plane, a hug rainbow welcomed me back! While there, I got to know Derek (Shona’s boyfriend with a heart of gold), Lucy (her adorable dog) and Creamy (the wild cat). It was great to be back and to see that not very much has changed. We visited all of my childhood sights, like my old house, the base, my school, downtown Edzell, the Blue Door, etc! We had time to visit a castle, east at some great restaurants (I had a spoonful of haggis, sticky-toffee pudding, and “banoffee” pie), and even visited the farm where Derek works to see the newly-arrived calves! On the way back to France, my backpack was LOADED with Scottish candy so I have a pretty lasting supply of fruit pastilles and Cadbury chocolate! Tee hee. It was sad to say goodbye but it is all the more reason to plan a trip back as soon as possible!!!
LUCY!
