Today was our big walking tour of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. The Royal Mile was established as a royal burgh by King David I in the 12th century.

When I was 8 years old, I went to summer camp for the first time. Whereas other kids were getting homesick as soon as they got there, I instead got sick the day I had to go home again. The travel bug caught me early and has lingered ever since. I LOVE to see new places, experience new cultures, eat new food... life is so short and there are so many places to see!

This is the whisky we got to sample. If I was going to drink whisky, this would probably be the one I'd choose. It was sweet and smooth (and didn't make me gag when I drank it). It has 22% alcohol.
