Home again

I got home last night after a couple of great days in Scotland, despite the rain... The rain in Edinburgh was actually the last rain I saw. Maybe getting soaked on Saturday meant that I met my quota?!

Sunday I spent visiting
Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and its park. Truly an amazing place and perfect for a Sunday afternoon. In the evening I I decided to walk down a street I hadn't been on before and found a very nice little family owned Italian restaurant called Pulcinella. Both the prosciutto with melon and salmon tagliatelle was delicious and with a big glass of Pinot Grigio my Sunday evening couldn't have ended better.

Glasgow is famous for having the most department stores and shops outside London and on Monday I think I visited most of them. And with the summer clearance still going on and things being marked down both two and three times it was real fun. Unfortunately I didn't find any bargains though, but hey one can't be lucky all the time...

Travelling by myself was again both exciting and fun, but most of all very empowering. I'm a strong and confident woman who can do whatever I feel like. And I'm very proud of it.
