Anyways, Danielle and I went hiking on Saturday to Port Erin, the beach is beautiful and the hike was exciting.... we passed over barricades to get there, so daring are we! After the hike we went to Peel for Icecream (mint chocolate chip is the best!), out for drinks with her friend Jacqui and then to the Carnival at castletown (turned out to be a little boring, but it was strange to see a very bad entertainer belting out the tunes!).

One week seems like forever if we have to keep listening to Keith talking about you coming back and how big his muscles are. :) It's to bad, but I think you might be a bit early to see Edinburgh's Fringe. I think we were there at the end of August.
