The highlight of our trip could have easily been our day trip across Scotland onto a ferry and onto tDSC04824he Isle of Bute. On this little island was a forgotten church that was nameless with its roof long collapsed inside of its walls. We would have nearly passed the grounds had I not seen out of the corner of my eye the blue sky where the roof should have been. We loitered inside the church (which probably wasn’t something we were supposed to do) for a long time.

After 21 days of being abroad, Jess and I have finally returned to the States and sleeply little Cottage Grove. We had an amazing trip, it was truly a nonstop sensation of awe. Time seemed to meander before the trip started but sprinted throughout the entire trip, before we knew it we were in our car on I-5, Grove-bound.

So here’s the recap, the wrap up, the final analysis:

Well, actually, hello from Paris but we went to Luxembourg and back today. It was interesting being in the biggest city in a country and have it be walkable in just a handful of hours. There were some exceptional walls and ruins that run throughout the city, as well as some ornate stone bridges, some dating back from the 1700s, even though the city was founded in 960. Last couple of days in Paris, Bastille day (and fireworks?) on the 14th… then Barcelona.

We’ve been in Paris for two days now. It is good to be back, but I prefer Paris in winter. A block off the Rue Cler. Pictures, soon… maybe. We’ll see.
