Blogging Backtrack

So my last blog was super lame because I totally forgot a whole bunch of stuff that happened. I'm so ashamed, because one of those things was that we went to Loch Ness aka Home of the Loch Ness monster, aka Nessie. Hello what was I thinking.

Last Sunday we took a tour of the Highlands, which a super beautiful and I hope to explore later in the Summer. Basically it was a twelve hour bus tour. It was wonderful because our tour guide was so immense. he was a fountain of knowledge and had the gift of Witty Witty joke joke. The highlight of the trip was venturing to Loch Ness and climbing aboard The Legend. The ship of dreams more like it. Aboard this fair maiden we cruised along keeping our eyes peeled for the beast. We also went by a castle and took some magical photos. Now I will not say if I saw it or not because like the tour guide said don't tell anyone or they'll go and catch it and then there will be nothing in the lake to see and all the people in the tourist shops will lose their jobs and who wants to be responsible for that. Also the tour guide mentioned the Ogopogo- because its BITCHIN. So it was a lovely day I'm glad I got to see quite a different part of the country.


Also-now I'm back tracking I blame my piss poor previous blog and the disorganization, shame on you past self- last Saturday was the Heineken cup final. this is basically the super bowl of rugby in Europe. super big deal. IT was immense because we watched a game in the Murrayfield bar by my house and had a blast when the game was over. The highlight for me would be when a small rowdy Welshman bought my dad a drink then suggested a drinking competition. Dad decline, Kevin however went right for it. Now I'm not going to lie, Kevin was loosing- in a fairly large way- things were looking grim...until the Welshman choked and barfed all over his buddy. Ass this happened I did what anyone else in the situation would have- jumped up on my chair pointed at the man and yelled out 'he barfed' and declared Kevin the winner.

The rest of the time mainly was spent touristing it up and me getting back to work.

Last week was my final week at Starbucks. I'm not going to lie, when I finished in Kelowna I found it hard not to go back and set the place on fire. Here I'm a little sad to see it go and I've pretty much been in every day since I left. I all fairness though its been hotter then the chains of hell here and I can usually manage a free cold beverage out of them so its really a matter of convenience.
