2009 Bank of Scotland Fireworks Concert

去年也放過這個事情的紀錄:包括白天的彩排和晚上的video
這次前面奉上monlai 拍的照片,如果想看我拍的小video 就請耐心捲動頁面到後面嘍!

今年是第一次出門看煙火、果真不同視角也是很不錯的!
我們中午還先去勘景、確定一下哪幾個地方是我們可以選的,結果傍晚一到我們的首選就發現:我們還是有點晚阿!最好的位置已經架了三個腳架了。我就趕快卡在剩下稍微不好一點的位子不敢亂跑,還好還有這個位置,不然就傷心了!

Lake District 兩日遊

本來是託F-Y & J 來訪的福氣、一起去湖區玩三天
不過因為Monlai 後來跟老師約meeting 的時間沒辦法延(我倒是囂張地直接跟老師說:喔~我那幾天不在,下週好不好?結果Monlai 的狀況卻不能這樣 XD ),所以我們只好提早收假、最後一天讓他們兩個人很浪漫去~

其實兩天天氣都是陰陰雨雨的(第三天Monlai meeting 那天、聽說天氣很好阿~~~~)
不過暫時放下論文兩天總還是開闊的心情

搭船遊湖看到的景色

兩天都很開心,也很感謝F-Y 辛苦地開車,真的!!

North Berwick 的 Highland Games 2009

剛好在這天去了 North Berwick
海邊的人少得可憐、船東說因為人都去看(參加)Highland Games 了!
在我們要離開去搭火車之前看到大家夾道地等待著
Y-C 就問了路人、才知道他們在等著 Highland Games 結束之後的小遊行
我們等了一下子、在要離開的時候忽然聽到風笛的聲音
所以又回頭看到這段遊行 (就是list of events 的最後一項:Parade of Bands Through the Town)

家裡住在主要街道的好處就是不用出門就可以看遊行啦!
