"Rain"
Well, you can't come to Scotland in summer and NOT expect rain. The weather had been pretty good for my parents' visit. It has been cool, but not cold, which they love, and for the most part we have avoided rain, except for today. Fort William is one of the most beautiful places in Scotland, and I really wanted them to see it in all its glory. Here they are, making the best of it....shopping! And the rain eventually cleared up, too!
As annoying as the rain might be to you - for any of us 'mericans coming to visit Scotland, I'd imagine that the mere fact of being in SCOTLAND would supercede any negative feelings of rain :)
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the looks on your parents faces - I've seen it many times before. It's the happiness and pride they have from having you as their daughter. Do you ever think about it from their perspective - they kinda lucked out, don't you think??

Thanks. That's so sweet. You have no idea how much I needed to hear that right now. I actually read it at 5am, just after coming back from the airport to drop them off, and it totally hit the spot. More on why in an email...
ReplyDeleteTiming, as they say, is everything.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny, I had to wake up at 4am to bring my parents to the airport. My intention was to go straight to bed when I got back, but for some reason, I stopped off to check FB and PAD. Maybe that was your mom, guiding me to your post??? :)
