Day 2....The Gathering part 1

OK ...day 2...what did we do? Oh yeah the Gathering.It was a beautiful day and so very crowded! Good grief....I think I heard every language imaginable. we met up with a woman Nadine who I met through one of Diana Gabaldon yahoo groups and sat with during Diana's speach/talk.Diana blows me away everytime I hear her speak.She read a couple of exerpts from her book Echo of the Bone but nothing I havent heard before.I cant wait for the next book.She didnt drop any news about what else is in the book or anything about new about movie deals and we all forgot to ask about the graphic novel too! Too much was going on at the time and did I mention it was very crowded.



After the talk we went and found Alistair of Clans and Castles Tours.Alistair regonized me from my picture off his blog and facebook.I wasnt expecting him to know who I was but he did.We walked around and I swear I really did try to find young kilted guys but all there was were older and older men in kilts. Not that they looked bad its just I was hoping for more of a younger group...Sorry guys....



Prince Charles was there too by the way and maybe one of the reasons it was so crowded and no I did not see/meet him nor did I really want too meet him rather he was kilted or not.

Then while we were looking around we bought some lunch called 'pasties' and no not the Gypsy Rose Lee twirly kind that are glued to your nipples either...I know ya'll were thinking that....but the kind with beef and gravy inside a pastry.It was very hot and not too bad.Then we continued on with the kilt hunt (David was not so very helpful in this venture either)But we found what should NOT be in a kilt.....



See that guys face? It just proves that the front really was worse then the back!

Now this is for my daughter Katlyn,just for her .....



And this old man? well what was he thinking?



Here are some kilted....


And this is one very special guy....


And when he caught me taking his picture he decided to sing to me....Oh joys of joys..




More to follow but now its time to go meet up with our guide for dinner....
