Mom's Visit #1

So my mom visited for 10 days and left last Sunday. My dad was supposed to come too but he lost his passport and wasn't able to make it :( Of course we later found out there is an office in Washington, DC where you can get a passport if your flight is within the next six hours but we didn't know that then. Luckily Dad was able to get credit for his flight but unfortunately that means I won't see him until I go home! I was really looking forward to it too! This has made me rethink when I'll be returning home and I'm going to push it up a few weeks. Right now I'm entertaining July 20th but will confirm in a few weeks. I also really don't want to miss the opportunity at a great job that I might be too late for if I don't go back until the end of August!

It really was great seeing my mom! We spent a lot of time hanging around, chatting, and just enjoying being together. We didn't do much around Edinburgh but we did go check out the Royal Yacht Britannia in Leith. Here are some pictures of that.

Sitting room for after dinner.



The Queen's bedroom made specifically to her liking. It even had a convenient door to the Duke's room!

Stay tuned for more pictures of our little vacation!
