I got back to Glasgow around 4pm, and I was feeling sick b/c I had been soak and wet all day Saturday, and had no dry shoes. However, Becca, Emma and Debbie asked me if I wanted to go out to the club Bamboo. I said yes...actually I said Heck Yeah! But to get in free, we had to dress like we were tennis or golf pros. The club was crowded and hot and had loud music, but it was fun! I also got my first chips and cheese (cheese fries!) in scotland! They were sooo good!
It was totally worth not getting to bed until 4am b/c I got to hang out w/Becca and Becks in their room b4 we left, and I was actually talking and it came naturally and easy! Then today I talked to Becca in the kitchen for an hour. She told me all about Ireland and "The Troubles" (she's Irish). There was a shooting yesterday in Ireland by the IRA, and Becca explained to me about everything that has been going on in Ireland. She is Catholic and from Northern Ireland (i think that's how it goes). Her father and his brother had to leave Ireland at one point b/c the IRA threatened to bomb their family shop. I think Ireland might be a dangerous place right now.

  1. Careful about going to Bamboo! My friend David mentioned that it can get pretty rough there and has a bad rep. Especially when the local rival futbol clubs are playing each other----as will happen this weekend. Watch yourself!!!
