A Culture and Climate Shock

A tired video from us today, but we wanted to update you while we had a free moment because so much has happened in the past week!

1. Our house sold!

2. We shipped all our stuff.

3. Our dog Brida was picked up and started her 5 day journey to Scotland.

4. We made it to Dunoon on Wednesday without any issues, faster than we expected.

5. We made a trip into Glasgow to get Lance’s biometric residency permit and buy some things we needed.

6. We made our first trip into Dunoon by bicycle today to run more errands before Brida arrives tomorrow.

Cheerio to Charlotte - on our way to Scotland!

Scenes of our first day in Dunoon - beautiful sunshine to greet us!

Our trip into Glasgow on the CalMac ferry, Lance getting his BRP at the Post Office, the CalMac picking us up from Gourock for the trip home.

Gratitude

Thanks to everyone involved in our house sale: Patti our realtor, Stephanie our attorney, Suzanne for being POA in our absence, Jay for cutting our grass, and everyone who came and picked up items (so many that I’m bound to forget some).

Big thanks to my friend Iain in Dunoon for being a chauffeur our first two days and our friend. We’re looking forward to hitting the trails on our bikes with you!

Much gratitude to our landlord Roisin and her husband Sandy for creating such a soft landing for us at Eckford House <3

Le gaol (with love in Scottish Gaelic),
