The fourth day is raining for whole day and this was unlucky day, we have a small car accident. This accident in on the way we went to St. Andrew. We went to Aberdeen University in the morning. This is a old university, its very beautiful, and pharmacy in this university is also very famous. But the weather here is really cold, even it was May, it still very cold. We found the may, there is an abbey on the way we went to St.Andrew, I forget the name of abbey, this is an old abbey, there were some clothes, we try it and took some funny picture. There is a special room, the manager told me if we sang the song, it would be very good, but we are too shy, so we didn’t sang the song in the room.

In the afternoon, we went to St.Andrew, We have car accident in round about, but it was ok, because it was not our fault. The driver in another car is a elder women, she said she never have car accident before. Lucky, we went to St.Andrew castles, and it still open, but we don’t have to go around cathedral. Therefore, we went to castle, and saw the museum in the castle.

The third day, I can said that is castles’ day, we visit many castles. Because we bought explore tickets, this 3 days we can visited some castle in Scotland for free, this ticket is 19 pound, therefore we went to some castles on the way to Aberdeen. I forget most name of castles, most of those castles are the same, we call those castles “ruins”, I think we visit 4 castles, some castles is lived for soldier. But the time is not enough, we arrived in Aberdeen is almost evening, so most of museum is closed. Therefore we went to supermarket and buy some food for cooked.

We didn’t have time to apply VISA, therefore we decided to travel Scotland again. We decided on Thursday , and we travel from Saturday, yes it was very hurry, and we hire a car and book hostel, but there is no hostel in Elgin, so we booked an B&B. We drived 7 hours form Bradford to Elgin, we arrived on 10.30, this B&B is really nice, and only cost us 20 pound, so we descided to live here 2 night. The second day, we went to whiskey factory, this company introduce us how to make whiskey and we tasted a little bit whiskey, it was very strong. Then in the afternoon we went to Elgin cathedral, it is a very beautiful places, although most of wall were broken. We climb stair, on the tower, the view was very nice, we can see whole Elgin town, so beautiful, the we go around the town centre, it was 8.00 at night, we felt very tired, because we went to too much places, and we sleep very well in the B&B.  

19 May, its Bo birthday, we put special cake to his cake, the cake is full of chili, pepper, cinamon, but he still eat very happy, we are very suprise.........haha.

Then we sang th happy birthday song, and everyone kiss him, 2 men really kiss Bo, haha, very funny.

Then Forest used magic, wow, he can read our mind, this is magic, but i didn't believe, this was cheating, i guess, but i can not found his mistake.......then we play poker, we can not play whole night, because many people have  a lot of projest to do, therefore they went back on 12.00, happy birthday BO.......

There are five waterfalls in this area.Although i don't think this is a nice place, not very becautiful (because i have been many placese which is much becautiful than this). but its a suitable place for hiking. we spent about 3 hours walked, on the way of we went back, there is a small shop, we bought hot dog there, its only GBP1.6,and we sat down in a grass and enjoin picnic.we saw a big waterfall and we cross over the rive and took many pistures, and then we climb a high stone, we have some strange position on the stone, and then some british children follow us to put some strange position haha, we also "inside" waterfall, i mean behind the waterfall, it really funny.  some people dive in waterfall, its a little bit dangerous. anyway this is a nice dat trip

Our classmate one by one show their dissertation purposal. Its a very nice experience.

It takes3 hours from Bradford to North Wales. Wehave a "comfort stop" on the way. Firest we arrived Conway, we entried to Conway Cascle.Conway is said to be one of the  finest remaining medieval walled town walls. This cascle was built by king Edward one,and it was completed in 1287. It has 8 huge roundtowers. We walk  around one of the battlements and go up the spiral staircases to the top. its fantasic view here, i saw estuary, mountain,wow, becautiful. then we go to town crntre, we saw the smallest house in Britian, there are 2 floor in this small house, in the second floor, there are only one bed. Outside the small house, there is a women wear tranditional wales clothe. Webought a small tranditional Wales cookies, its a little like scone.

Then we went to LLANDUDO. Its a becautiful beach here.Thereis a pier in the beach, it was opened in 1878. then we went to a garden, we don't have time to climb mountain, so i don't have time to take cable car, besides its lone queue. We went to city centre, we saw a small church. because we walked for a long time, so we take a rest in the church, and then we went to shopping centre, but most of shop close on 5.00, so we only took some picture in this shopping centre. by the way this shopping centre is victoria style building. becautiful, its a nice day and nice trip.

We went to Forwillion at night, this hostel is not very good, the heater in our room, it only work 2 hours and then it switch off automatically. I felt very cold in the morning. We went to Nevis Range in the morning, we thought we can see snow, so we decided to buy ticket to take a "cable car", but when we arrived the half of mountain, we can not see snow, because we can not skiing, so we can not go to the top mountain, so pity, we can’t see snow. We hiking two side, and took some pictures, and then we decided go to Newcastle, we arrived on 8.30PM, we saw Millennium bridge, its really beautiful, the colour in this bridge change all the time. We crossed the bridge and go for a walk. We arrived Bradford at 2.30AM, this is really nice trip, my heart is not here, my heart is still in Scotland, I think I need study hard now, 3 assignments 1 presentation, 4 examinations.  

I think “one picece”, this Japanese cartoon is come from this name. how can I describe this island, all scenery is nature, its suitable for hiking, if you like climb mountain, I think this is the best place. The bridge in shyland is very beautiful. On the top of a mountain, you can see the house like a cast.Then we went to a garden, I forget the name of garden, the tour told us we can see Dunvegan from the castle, but I didn’t see that. When I want to leave skyland, we went wrong way, but it was very luck, we saw highland cow, wow, and they are very cute. We call this wrong way “beautiful wrong” by the way, kim is a really fantastic driver, although the road in skyland is not really good, but he drove very nice. He is our hero. Although he want to drink alcohol at night, but we didn’t buy it for him, and he want to go for a walk at night, but we didn’t go with him, haha.

Inverness is a lovely places, there is a river near our hostel, we went there, wow, its amazing place. Some people walk around the river and others jogging. We went to castle, but it didn’t open, then we went to Ness lack, we want to see monster, so we took a boat, wow, Loch Ness, this is a really beautiful lake, there were two duck follow our boat, we through the castle and took many nice picture. The captain told us many things of his history including where is his house, his house is pink one, Tina hate this colour, haha, but its my favorite colour haha. He shows us a tree, he sia when the follower fall, and leaf will growth up. We went a souvenir shop to bye a key ring, the store owner gave us some candies, wow, its very sweet, I love it. Then we went to another hostel, on the way of hostel, we saw EILEAN DONAN castle, we decided went out to see this castle, but it was 6.00 PM, the castle is close, so we can not enter, we just took picture outside. Then we arrived our hostel in portree (shyisland).

We hire a car. We leave Bradford at 2.30AM. First, we went to stirlling, its 8.00AM.we are very tired, so we slept a while in the car. The castle opens on 9.30. The scenery is beautiful, we entry to the castle, to be honest, this castle is not as beautiful as Windsor, but it still very meaningfulness. Many building built in Rome’s period, and some statues destroy because of war. I can see the lion on the flag. This is the symbol of Scotland’s king. Stirling castle built high on the rock and visible for miles around, it is one of the finest examples of Renaissance architecture in Europe. The castle include great hall, the largest in Scotland. The great wall is magnificent. This demonstrates the comfort and style enjoyed by the Royal Court of James IV.

A team of Britain’s most talented weavers work at loom creating a modern interpretation of a tapestry from the famous The Hunt of the Unicorn series.

This was secondy time I went to blackpool, but It was at night when I went there last time. Blackpool is a please for relax, therefore, we can see many casinos there. The ticket for a wristband for unlimited rides on the funfair is 10 pound (because I bought advance, original its 15) I rided on 4 facilities in funfair. It was very exciting to play such kind of game, I enter a ghost hotel, a student I think she is only teenages. She yell at the back of me, she frighten me, terrible girl. too childish. There are many facilities that you can play, such as basketball, if you shoot a ball, and you can win a big doll ( very funny) many people won. Tina like frogs( British one), but this game is not easy, you must climb a stair and you can not fall down, many people tried, but they failed. Tina and I discussed how to play this game that we can sucessed, but we gave up finally, because at first time a man told us he would gave us disscout (50p, its a pound) but, when we descided to play this game, it changed to a women, she didn't give us discount, so we gave up.

We went to tower and beach, we put our name on the beach, its really really cold, and then we go sround the city centre, we bought a candy( tranditional candy). We also ate fish and chips, the fish is really delicious here, I love it.
