In Scotland
Saturday, July 29th, 2006I made it to Scotland. I’m on an internet terminal in the basement of a McDonald’s. Not an ideal blogging location. More later.

Almost everything is packed but my laptop now, and I am about to head for the airport. Graduation went well yesterday, and now everyone is saying their last goodbyes. I’m going to catch the bus to the airport with Myles, a classmate of mine from the Air Force Academy.
Monday night the U.S. ambassador to the Czech Republic hosted our group at his residence. After classes, we went back to the dorm, dressed up, and walked to his residence. Arriving at the residence I was impressed by the large and elegant property. The house is beautiful, and the back terrace and lawn look like a set for a Hollywood wedding. I think I could get into being an ambassador in a stable Central or Eastern European country (somewhere with lots of nice old architecture).
