Brian Murphy Today was a very packed full day. I woke up early and went wandering about near the Royal Mile and Princes Street. Eventually I started walking back towards the flat, and began looking for a barber. Luckily I found one, the person did a good job and it only cost me 7 pounds.
After lunch, I went with the Scottish Culture and Society class on our field trip to Glenkinchie, where we toured a whiskey distillery. We all had a lot of fun, mainly because of the sunny warm weather. The tour was kinda dull, as if you've seen one type of distillery, you've pretty much seen them all. But there was a lot of cool scenery nearby. Double plus: warm enough to wear shorts and t-shirts!!!!
