Whooshhhhh!
That's the sound of November flying past us.
The holiday fun has already begun.
We went ice skating at the Natural History Museum over the weekend with a group of friends.
It was so much fun! Yes, I used on one of those kiddie skate buddy penguin things.
(Someone snagged it for me. Hopefully, we didn't leave some poor child crying on the ice.)
But, I'm so not embarrassed, because I got out there, I didn't fall and had the best time.
There's evidence on Instagram. There might even be a video.
This weekend we are combining two traditions for the perfect celebration.
Thanksgiving + Pubs. Fun will be had by all!
Today I'm sharing photos from another stop on our road trip with my dad & brother.
After our stop at the Giant's Causeway, a night in Belfast and one in Derry,
it was time to leave Northern Ireland.
(On a side note, Derry was the home of the first immigrant from my dad's family tree
that came to America in the 1700's. So, of course, we had to stop there.)
Then it was back on the ferry and across the waters to Scotland.
I expected the landscape of Scotland to be very similar to Ireland.
But, it really has a completely different feel to it.
(I'm not sure yet how to explain it, but I'll try to as I post more about our time there.)
These photos are from Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park.

'Tis beautiful, is it not?
(Doesn't it make you want to talk with a Scottish lilt?)
(I've used an excessive amount of parenthetical statements in this post. Apologies.)
How would you describe the difference between the landscapes of Scotland and Ireland?
