Hi

Just wanted to check in, to say hi.

i got home from my holiday in scotland about 2 hours ago. i had the most special time EVER!! the best christmas ive had, by far!

the landscape and scenery was absolutley inspirational, and i ended up writing a couple of songs up there which hold so much potential, so i will begin work on them very soon.

the holiday house i was in was minutes from a mountain, which takes 2 hours to get to the top on foot, so i walked up there wednesday and took some breath-taking pictures. i will be uploading them onto PC now, so check them out and tell me if you agree with me when i say that the view from the top of that mountain was stunning. i just sat there for a short while looking over the world, appreciating everything for what it is. i wasnt up there long as the weather turned very cold (it was very high as you can see from the pics), and it got dark quickly too, so i had to descend quickly, and i didnt have another chance to go up there again.

it truly was magical, that holiday. and christmas was wonderful too. spending it with my family was good, and everyone got on, no arguements and everyone was very happy for the week. i am upset to be home, but i know 2007 holds many good things so i have to look ahead and keep the memories close to my heart.

i was unable to take pictures of the house i stayed in, so here is the link to the website of the house. and the pics of the view from the mountain are on the PHOTOS section now, http://www.littleholidayhouses.com/cottage/38.asp

I hope you all had a good time over christmas and i look forward to hearing your stories from this season.

i missed you all and thought of you all everyday i was away.
