Today's Gifts From God

  1. Today during our tour of Scotland we climbed this steep mountain to see this rock that was free standing. there's a tale/myth/legend about it being a giant that was turned to stone and then a wind came...anyway, this was suppodly his "man part." however, it was one STEEP climb!! I actually did not finish. I made it a little more than 3/4 of the way up and that was all I could hangle it. however, I am proud that I made it that far.
  2. I saw some more amazing sceneri today. Scotland is so beautiful!
  3. I heard two neat stories today from our tour guide: one about a creature that lives in a loch that turns into a horse on land and whoever gets on it he drowns them and eats them. the other about a seal that turns into a lady by taking off her skin on land. they were really good! I love story telling!
  4. We stopped for lunch at this small village/town called "Portree" and I bought some good souveniers: this marble stone that the people on skye's ancestors would carry when they left home, for safety and luck and so if they never came back, they would always have a piece of their home with them. I also bought this cute wallet in this unique shop that is celtic and Sri Lankan culture mixed together. lots of colors!
  5. I listened to worship songs all day today; 99% of all I listened to was worship songs. mostly, I listened to "Mighty to Save." it was good and it made me think about God and how amazing He is. it was good for me.
