I actually planned the next few days.

So give me a pat on the head because I was actually responsible today. I managed to plan and arrange the remainder of my time here in Europe in advance. I have never planned further than how long I was going to stay in one place so this is really a unique event. Today I got my bus ticket for Monday to Inverness, where I’ll stay for two nights(booked the hostel too). Then I bought my bus ticket back to London (booked the hostel too) on the 19th where I’ll stay for one day and night and then head to the US on the 20th for five days. I’ve rented a car for five days when I arrive at Amarillo at night. Then in two days I meet up with my brother in Clovis, NM. I haven’t seen him for six years so it will be something to see him.

Oh yeah, it looks like I’m not going to be able to see two of the things that I really wanted to see, Loch Ness and Stone Henge. I thought that I’d make it to both, but gave up on Stone Henge when I was in London, and just today realized that I wouldn’t be able to make it to Loch Ness. You have to pre-buy the tickets to Loch Ness and the bus leaves at 7:30. I probably could make it on time, but if I don’t they won’t refund the price of the ticket, and it costs about $125. It’s too much to gamble on for me.

Great Britain has been great and I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface of the things that I wanted to do, I still want to rent a car and just drive the country in any direction that interests me. That would include Ireland, Scotland, and of course England. So with any luck I’ll get a chance next year or maybe later.
