Back in business

well, almost... Been busy entertaining friends from Atlanta, going to London and Edinburgh, and stopping at most of the pubs in between.
Also had to write a 10-page paper for class, which took my attention away from traveling and soccer and tennis for a week or so... but now i have one more class before my five week spring break starts up. I'm particularly looking forward to that since it includes a trip home to visit my family and friends, see Grandma on her 100th birthday, and then Mom and Dad follow me back to the UK for 10 days.
Judging by the amount of walking that Aditya and Daxa and I did over the last week, I think they're in for a little more than culture shock. We collected a couple of gigabytes worth of pictures, so we'll have fun looking at those when I get home.
Hope everyone had a great St Patty's Day! We were in Scotland on Friday, came home on Sat, and by the time I made it to the local pub they had run out of Guinness.
See y'all soon!

ps. The Millenium Bridge is a walking bridge over the Tyne River. When boats need to pass underneath, it tilts up to form a big wicket over the river. Reminds me of the StL Arch a little... (photos courtesy of Aditya, also pictured above)
