So, first day was reaaallllyyy long day, because I had to stay 6 hours in Amsterdam airport. Luckily I found a nice place to take a nap:
There were also some other people sleeping (as you can see the background?)
It was so quiet in there, and you could hear some "forest voices" on the background while sleeping, like bird singing and etc. There was also tiny science centre for the children.
There Amsterdam airport is huge! When people got tired after walking in this huge building, they used these things:
 |
| These are like 200 meters long. If you feel tired after walking, use these. |
 |
| Finally in Scotland! The view from the plane. |
At the evening of the first day we went to restaurant with the other IFYEs. But people were so tired after travelling, so we all went to sleep right away after we got back to hostel from restaurant.
Day 2
On the morning, before 8 am, you could already hear the voice of Scottish bagpipe from the streets.
We went to the Scotland's parliament house in Edinburgh with other exchangees. The building was quite interesting.

We returned to our hostel and desided to take a bus tour around the Edinburgh with other IFYE exchangees.
 |
| The Edinburgh castle! |
 |
| We went quite close the castle with the tour bus. |
The city of Edinburgh is surprisingly warm even it's windy and raining. In this kind of weather I would freeze in Helsinki or Tampere. But here it's so warm! : O
At the evening, we did have somekind of formal dinner in a cool restaurant.
(Girls had to wear dress and boys something formal)
On the dinner we met lot of members of Scottish Young Farmers. During the evening, we heard traditional Scottish songs by one of the quests, who was wearing a Scottish kilt! Unfortunately he didn't play sackpipe... We also danced, and when we got back to hostel, my legs were hurting u__u''
